The Art of Living Joyfully: How to Be Happier Every Day of the Year

(PRWEB) April 24, 2013

How did Allen Klein come to be the world’s only Jollytologist, selling over 600,000 books worldwide, and become a successful speaker? Surprisingly, Allen’s mission began when he faced life’s greatest challenge. When he was a young man, his wife was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. During his wife’s bedside vigil, Allen quickly realized that telling jokes and stories lifted not only his wife’s spirits, but everybody else’s, including his own. The compelling inspiration of words and the healing power of humor helped everyone cope with the diagnosis and death of his wife at the young age of 34. Allen Klein’s purpose is to make people feel inspired again, to bask in laughter and revel in joy. In the busyness of life and the stress of the day-to-day, it is easy to become over-worked and under-joyed.

Allen will be appearing on these radio shows; tune in to listen to his jokes and advice about living joyfully:
May 3: Coach's Cafe Radio
May 16: On Purpose Radio

Another way to listen to Allen Klein is through his audio books:
The Art of Living Joyfully: How to Be Happier Every Day of the Year
Words of Love: Quotations from the Heart
Change Your Life! A Little Book of Big Ideas
Inspiration for a Lifetime: Words of Wisdom, Delight and Possibility

Allen will also be speaking at the Hospice of Hilo in Hilo, HI on May 10th and at Illinois School Nutrition Association from June 27-28th.

Support Life, Seek Truth, Set Your Course—so begins The Code, the set of principles that have guided Tony Burroughs and that he has spent the last two decades sharing with the world. In Get What You Want, Burroughs has gathered together the tenets of The Information for the first time. At the core of these teachings is conscious manifesting—collecting your desires in a context “for the highest good” and stating them aloud to a consistent and supportive circle of fellow intenders. Burroughs has been sharing this technique since he left Kona in the 90s and there are now more than a million people all over the world who meet regularly in Intenders Circles and manifest all they can imagine. The network is knitted together in a grassroots association called The Intenders of the Highest Good.

Tony Burroughs is an author, storyteller and a cofounder of The Intenders of the Highest Good, a grassroots community movement with Intenders Circles in countries all over the world. Also the author of the popular daily email message called The Intenders Bridge at intenders.org. Burroughs lives in Mount Shasta, California.
