I’ve been asked to open this envelope on camera as if I’m seeing ‘How to be a Happy Human’ for the first time. I have seen it before but let’s pretend otherwise… It’s out on 19 November! Available in all good bookshops. 06 Nov 2026 Just two weeks to go until ‘How to be a Happy Human’ is out! 📖 😊 And for those who can’t wait, you can pick one up two days early at the Happiness Lecture: Seven humanist foundations for a happy life at @conwayhall on 17 November. 05 Nov 2026 🕯️ El valor de la vida no proviene de la eternidad, sino de su finitud. Como humanistas, aceptamos la #Muerte como parte del ciclo natural. La finitud de la vida nos hace valorar cada momento que compartimos con otros; comprender nuestra mortalidad nos invita a apreciar esta única existencia, sin engañarnos con fantasías para ser felices en otra “dimensión, reino, planeta o universo”. 💬 ¿De qué manera asumes el valor de la vida al reconocer su carácter finito? ¡Te leemos en los comentarios! #PrismaHumanista ##DiaDeMuertos #MuerteDigna 30 Oct 2026 There are no saints in humanism. Stop striving to be perfect. Be a work in progress. Embrace self-reflection. Be human. Ideally, a happy human! #HowtoBeaHappyHuman #Howtobeahappyhumanbook #Humanism #Philosophy #LifeAdvice #AndrewCopson #wellbeing #bookstagram #Philosophy #humanistsuk 1 w 29 Oct 2026 Our Chief Executive Andrew Copson featured on The Thinking Atheist podcast to discuss Christian Nationalism, Trump's America, and humanism on both sides of the Atlantic.

Making a habit of this, and seeking out people who see things differently, puts us in charge of how we think. And from a humanist point of view, it means we’re not afraid to change our minds: we follow the evidence, learn from our mistakes, and stay open to new ideas. How to be a Happy Human: Seven Humanist Foundations for a Better Life, is available for pre-order now. Friendship is the third of seven humanist foundations in Andrew Copson's new book.

Our happiest and most fulfilling lives are lived in connection with others, through friendship, love, and community. The golden rule – treating others as we would like to be treated – is a good place to start. But real kindness asks a little more of us: to listen, to understand, and to treat people as they wish to be treated. In the one life we have, how we treat each other matters more than almost anything. How to be a Happy Human: Seven Humanist Foundations for a Better Life, is available for pre-order now. Friendship is the third of seven humanist foundations in Andrew Copson's new book. Pre-order your copy now. #wellbeing #bookstagram #Philosophy #humanistsuk #Howtobehappyhuman 14 Oct 2026 How to be a Happy Human: Seven Humanist Foundations for a Better Life, is available for pre-order now. Written by Humanists UK Chief Executive @copsonandrew and published by Little, Brown on Thursday 19 November 2026, the books is available at all major book retailers, including Waterstones, Hive, Amazon, and Blackwell’s. How to be a Happy Human is for anyone tired of being told to optimise, hustle, or hack their way to happiness. It offers something different: real, usable advice for living well – as Tim Minchin put it, ‘how to be good and feel good without kidding yourself’. The book draws on 2,500 years of humanist thought, alongside contemporary science and psychology, to set out seven simple foundations for a better life: accepting the time we have; embracing friendship; spending time in nature; practising kindness; making space for self-reflection; pursuing growth; and choosing our own outlook. It’s an honest, evidence-based guide about how to be happy. #HowtobeaHappyHuman #Humanistbook #Bookinsta #Happiness #LifeAdvice 07 Oct 2026 13.8 billion years of cosmos. 4 billion years of life Earth. All of it led here, to you. Out of the ashes of dead stars, the universe arranged itself into something that can look up and wonder about its own beginnings. That we get to experience the world, the cosmos, and one another, in this most unlikely and briefest of moments, is no small thing. To humanists, life is a finite and magnificent phenomena. That humanist idea, as outlined by Carl Sagan, is the first of seven humanist foundations in Andrew Copson's new book #HowtoBeaHappyHuman. Pre-order yours today. Link in bio. 01 Jan 1970 Humanists don't believe in an afterlife. For us, that makes this life more precious, and gives us every reason to act now. We have one life, and we want to use it to create as much happiness as we can, for ourselves and for others. That idea, as outlined by Sandi Toksvig here, is the first of seven humanist foundations in Andrew Copson's new book #HowtoBeaHappyHuman. Pre-order yours today. Link in bio. 06 Oct 2026
