An international philanthropist, a global icon, a single mum of three and now an author, Meera Gandhi wears multiple hats with relative ease. In 3 Tips: The Essentials for Peace, Joy and Success, she offers self-help tips in the most pragmatic manner, interspacing guidance with anecdotes from her life, making this book quite an intimate read. The pace of its pages is easy and the narrative, simple yet powerful. HELLO! chats with the New York-based author to know more about her life’s journey and the lessons she learnt along the way.
As you mentioned in your book, colleges internationally now develop courses that teach one how to find happiness. Do you think this is a necessity in today’s day and age? The world has changed. In today’s fast-paced world, most people are chemically imbalanced due to improper diet, lack of proper sleep, lack of time to pray, meditate and give the mind time to recharge, lack of mobility, too much travel, too much comparison, too many opportunities... It’s a madness we were not created for. Hence, people are imbalanced, which shows up in the form of unhappiness, stress, depression and despair! So just like we need a manual to figure out a new phone, we need tools to protect ourselves and bring us back to happiness and balance. This is where courses or books are useful to help us redirect ourselves!
