Gretchen Rubin, “Life In Five Senses: How Exploring the Senses Got Me Out of My Head and Into the World”

Happiness Project Founder and New York Times bestselling author
Gretchen Rubin returns to the podcast to talk with Olivia about her new 
book, LIFE IN FIVE SENSES, another useful tool for the toolkit of anyone 
who shares her insatiable desire to understand human nature and find 
ways to live a happier life.

For this book Gretchen embarks on an experiment to see how a focus 
on her senses might change her perspective and discovered she found 
greater calm, joy, and connection to the people and places surrounding 
her. Gretchen shares surprising discoveries from daily visits the New 
York Metropolitan Museum of Art and which life experience she’d like a 
do-over for, after practicing these methods to be more in her body and 
in the moment.
