Great memories! Meik Wiking--happiness researcher and <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author of <em>The Little Book of Hygge</em> and <em>The Little Book of Lykke</em>--shows us how to create memories that make life sweet in this charming book.</strong><br/><br/>Do you remember your first kiss? The day you graduated? Your favorite vacation? Or the best meal you ever had? </p><p>Memories are the cornerstones of our identity, shaping who we are, how we act, and how we feel. In his work as a happiness researcher, Meik Wiking has learned that people are happier if they hold a positive, nostalgic view of the past. But how do we make and keep the memories that bring us lasting joy?</p><p><em>The Art of Making Memories</em> examines how mental images are made, stored, and recalled in our brains, as well as the "art of letting go"--why we tend to forget certain moments to make room for deeper, more meaningful ones. Meik uses data, interviews, global surveys, and real-life experiments to explain the nuances of nostalgia and the different ways we form memories around our experiences and recall them--revealing the power that a "first time" has on our recollections, and why a piece of music, a smell, or a taste can unexpectedly conjure a moment from the past. Ultimately, Meik shows how we each can create warm memories that will stay with us for years.</p><p>Combining his signature charm with Scandinavian forthrightness, filled with infographics, illustrations, and photographs, and featuring "Happy Memory Tips," <em>The Art of Making Memories</em> is an inspiration meditation and practical handbook filled with ideas to help us make the memories that will bring us joy throughout our lives. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[A] fresh exploration of memories and memory making. . . . an inspiration to those who have believed memory retention to be beyond their control. Wiking's focus on the pleasure and solace created by happy memories will make this accessible book great for deep study and casual perusal alike. --<em>Publishers Weekly</em> <strong>(starred review)</strong><br>
