Why Ordinary Objects Can Make You Extraordinarily Happy

Conventional wisdom tells us that real joy comes from within: from exercise or meditation, acts of service or the way we look at the world—pretty much anything except material possessions. But author/designer Ingrid Fetell Lee has a different opinion. In her book, "Joyful: The Surprising Power of Ordinary Things to Create Extraordinary Happiness," Lee offers tangible evidence of the powerful relationship between the way we feel and the objects that surround us, and explains how we can harness that relationship to live healthier, happier lives.
