Tree of Knowledge Managing Director Releases His First Book this Week!

Published

27th March 2018

It’s the month to SHINE with Tree Of Knowledge Managing Director’s first ever book being released. SHINE: Rediscovering your Energy, Happiness and Purpose will be released March 30th. The team at Tree of Knowledge are delighted for their very own Gavin Oattes. What’s even more exciting is he has co-written SHINE with Children’s Author and Dr of Happiness, Andy Cope!

What do you get when you cross a Scottish stand-up comedian with England’s first ever Doctor of Happiness? A new book that will have you laughing out loud whilst learning some serious science behind positive psychology, the value of inside-out thinking and practical tips for those in need of an energy transfusion.

Authors Gavin Oattes and Dr Andy Cope describe SHINE as ‘self-help comedy’. It’s a rip-roaring tour through big issues of the day - social media, technology, 24/7 news – their impact on our lives and relationships. Offering practical and humorous advice on how to take them head on.

SHINE is packed with practical tools backed up by the latest psychological research that will help readers reset their mental health. Gav & Andy describe it as a mental Ctrl/Alt/Delete. Practical tips include, how to bounce back from criticism, how to rethink your thinking, how to create a 25th hour in the day. And even, a brilliant new platform www.weworry4u.co.uk, on which readers can post their trivial worries, with the promise that Gav & Andy do the worrying for you. They’ve already had some fantastic worries from people around the world (this just in from Debra in Sheffield: ‘Dear G&A, I’m worried because I can’t work out which of the socks I’m wearing is the one that doesn’t match? I didn’t know who else to turn to.’)

SHINE is the antidote to modernity - perfect for anyone stuck in the hamster wheel of life, who has lost sight of how to identify what really matters and how to stop stressing about the stuff that doesn’t.

"This book is a real tonic and is guaranteed to put a smile on your face without surgery, shopping or mind-altering drugs."
Carole Ann Rice, Express Newspaper
