Have you ever had a positive and joyful experience, either on your own or with others, that has stayed with you over time, and created enduring memories for you that you find yourself revisiting occasionally? If you have, it's quite likely that you have encountered, possibly without even knowing it, a 'Peak Moment'.

Unpicking the psychology, biology and neurology of peak moments, this accessible and ground-breaking book explores how understanding and being able to create peak moments will enable you to make your life more meaningful, more joyful and more rewarding. By exploring the characteristics and common threads of these heightened emotional moments and sharing people's real-life stories in two specific contexts of sex and music, the relevance and importance of peak moments to our lives can be appreciated, understood, encouraged and fostered.

Building on decades of sound theory and empirical support, this extremely readable and engaging book provides a tangible way for people to gain insight through their experiences. It is valuable reading for anyone with a particular interest in personal development. It is also useful for psychologists, educators, coaches and psychotherapists, and students of positive and transpersonal psychology, humanism and human development.
