The Power of Real Optimism

£16.99

We’ve been sold the idea that optimism is a mood, a mindset, or worse – just an inherent trait. But what if real optimism is something else entirely? In ‘The Power of Real Optimism’, Dr. Deepika Chopra – known as The Optimism Doctor – offers a radically different definition: optimism as a science, a skill, and a psychological muscle we can strengthen. Grounded, practical, and poetic in all the right ways, this book will challenge your relationship with hope, rewire how you recover from hard things, and invite you to stay soft without falling apart. With her blend of intimate storytelling, psychological insight, and tangible tools – including a 33-day Real Optimism Challenge – Dr. Chopra offers something far more enduring than a quick fix or fleeting affirmation.

Description

AS FEATURED IN GOOD HOUSEKEEPING: ‘I can feel rusty parts of my brain coming back to life’ Lucy Mangan

Optimism isn’t about pretending everything is fine. It’s about staying open and flexible-especially when it’s not. In this fresh, science-backed debut, professional psychologist and media expert Dr. Deepika Chopra shows us how to build the kind of optimism that can actually withstand real life.

Grounded, practical, and poetic in all the right ways, this book will challenge your relationship with hope, rewire how you recover from hard things, and invite you to stay soft without falling apart. With her blend of intimate storytelling, psychological insight, and tangible tools-including a 33-day Real Optimism Challenge-Dr. Chopra offers something far more enduring than a quick fix or fleeting affirmation. She invites us into a deeper, more resilient way of living-one where we can stay curious in the face of fear, open in the face of grief, and grounded even as the world wobbles beneath us.

Because real optimism doesn’t deny the dark-it teaches us how to see in it.
