It also includes blank pages for journaling, reinforcing the book's interactive and personal approach to finding happiness.
An essential part of the book is the attention Fearne pays to mental health, emphasising its significance in our quest for happiness. She candidly shares her experience with depression, reinforcing that it's okay to have low days. This honesty not only helps destigmatise mental health issues but also makes "Happy" a book for everyone—those who are facing similar struggles and those who want to understand and support their loved ones better.
