The Law of Amplification


Thank you for all the joy along the book tour that brought me to DC, Takoma Park, Los Angeles, Livingston, home to Bozeman, Seattle -- and soon to LA again.


I'm leaning into Day 23 today, which is "Practice the Law of Amplification."  

 

Peer-reviewed psychological studies show that joy is contagious. A 2008 study by Harvard and the University of California showed that happy people amplify their happiness to spouses, neighbors, and friends. Someone who experiences happiness and shares it can increase a next-door neighbor's happiness by 34 percent. Even better, that positive exchange can extend to three degrees of friends, reaching outside of your network.

There is so much heaviness going on in the world right now, and the climate crisis has never been more serious and urgent. Today, though, I'm taking a moment to share my joy and gratitude for friends around the country who've supported this accessible, bite-sized day reader.



A few highlights:

 


MAY MUSINGS 

 

What I'm reading 

 

  • The Many Daughters of Afong Moy by Montana's very own New York Times best selling author Jamie Ford. This book recounts the journey of Afong Moy, the first Chinese woman to migrate to the United States. It's historical fiction that describes multi-generational trauma - its biology, psychology, and its spiritual nature -in spectacular, poignant storytelling.   

  • Hell of a Book by Jason Mott. This 2021 National Book Award winner for fiction follows a best-selling Black author on his national book tour. Brilliant, thought-provoking, and at times -- funny. The National Book Foundation states: "In a structurally and conceptually daring examination of art, fame, family and being Black in America, Mott somehow manages the impossible trick of being playful, insightful and deeply moving, all at the same time. A highly original, inspired work that breaks new ground."

 What I'm watching

 

  • GIRLS5EVA- The premise is that a late 90s girl group reunites. Highly recommend if you want a cheesy show that makes you belly laugh about the absurdity of the early aughts and the heyday of MTV.

THANK YOU all for your support and encouragement on this journey. I hope to connect with you as my book tour continues and so grateful for your support.
