Do you want to uncover your purpose in life? Are you searching for happiness in and out of your work? Do you wish for work that has some meaning? Making Happy Work is a timely message for a world in flux and for those who feel lost and disempowered.Making Happy Workis a call to take inspired action before it's too late.
Meditation teacher and inner architect, Mick Timpson, leads a call to change by showing how to shift the way people approach day-to-day living and working, via modern meditation techniques to reach a happier, more creative place. Mick says it's simply a change of perspective by learning to look at things differently. He writes, "Everything we do can be an opportunity to make happy work for us."
Making Happy Worktakes the reader on a meditation journey of eight parts which, stage-by-stage, build up into a simple, easy-to-use, powerful practice that can be incorporated into daily activities. The key to making happy work is that it's notwhatyou do in life that matters, buthowyou live through your life.
The main thesis is that we have all become disconnected from who we are and what we are here for. We are all living in an increasingly chaotic world, where we struggle to survive, let alone thrive. We are doing at the expense of being. However, if we can find time to just stop, notice and learn to be, we can reconnect. We can link our being with our doing. We can learn to be different and do differently.

As an architect, Mick has worked on projects around the world from Mexico City to his home city of Manchester, and his professional design work is deeply informed by his own yoga meditation as an architect and artist, and his knowledge of the contemporary cutting-edge research being carried out into the use of mindfulness in a wide variety of contexts.
