Cómo sentirse realmente amado, y no solo querido, en un mundo en el que muchos vínculos parecen superficiales o inestables.Una investigación profunda y transformadora firmada por una referente mundial en felicidad y un galardonado experto en relaciones humanas.¿Que se necesita para sentirse verdaderamente amado? Este libro parte de una premisa poderosa: no existe un unico secreto para la felicidad, pero si hay factores que contribuyen a ella de forma decisiva, y uno de los mas importantes es este sentimiento profundo y esencial que todos anhelamos. Sentirse amado y no solo amar o ser amado tiene mucho mas que ver con nuestra actitud y apertura que con lo que hacen los demas.Con base en decadas de investigacion en psicologia positiva y relaciones humanas, los autores revelan una verdad contraintuitiva: no se trata de mostrar nuestra mejor version, sino nuestra version mas completa, con defectos, miedos y vulnerabilidades. Al hacerlo, creamos las condiciones para una conexion autentica, en la que la otra persona tambien se atreva a mostrarse tal cual es.A lo largo del libro se presentan las cinco mentalidades clave que permiten cultivar este tipo de vinculos, en todas las areas de la vida: la mentalidad de comunicar, de escuchar para aprender, de curiosidad genuina, de corazon abierto y de multiplicidad. Adoptarlas no solo transforma nuestras relaciones, sino tambien nuestra propia percepcion del amor, la intimidad y la felicidad.La ciencia y la sabiduria ancestral han demostrado que el secreto de la felicidad es amar y sentirse amado. Como sentirse amado es una guia profundamente documentada y bellamente escrita para encontrar lo que todos necesitamos para alcanzar la verdadera felicidad. Este libro podria cambiar tu vida.

Brooks, profesor de Harvard y autor bestseller del New York TimesEste libro es un regalo para cualquiera que quiera vivir con mas alegria y conexion, lo que tambien le ayudara a vivir mas tiempo.
