23. Whats your score?
• To know your BHI - Be Happy
Index just add the points
mentioned against your answer
• This number is your BHI
according to this test by Dr
Robert Holden.
• Check what your BHI
signifies...
24. If you scored 84 to 100
points: Call to joy
• Inside each of us is a call to
joy. The more you answer this
call, the more you discover the
truth of who you are, what is
important and what your life is
for. By following your joy, you
experience the fullness of your
being and you discover a depth
of creativity and talent that
inspires the world. It's time to
answer the call!
25. If you scored 68 to 83
points: Getting there
• This is a healthy score but you
need to recognize the
difference between chasing
happiness and choosing
happiness. Happiness is not
outside you; it's not a
destination. When you stop
chasing it, you allow yourself to
be more present, more
available and more open. This
way you find happiness
26. If you scored 52 to 67
points: Semi-happy
• So, how are you? Watch out
for answers like I'm fine, Not so
bad. Yes, you are surviving, but
now it's time to start thriving!
Imagine if you were to raise
your BHI by 10% what do you
think you would you be doing
more of, less of or differently?
Being semi-happy is safe, but
its unfulfilling. Maybe it's time
to take a risk.
27. If you scored 36 to 51
points: Self-care
• This score is a sign that you
could be looking after yourself
better. Beware of unhealthy
self-sacrifice and self-neglect.
Recognize how you might be
limiting your own happiness.
Remind yourself that it is not
someone else's job to make
you happy. Remember also
that your healing and your
happiness is a gift to others.
28. If you scored 20 to 35
points: Shift happens!
• You probably knew you were
going to score this low before
you took the test. You need to
take an honest look at why you
feel the way you do. I also
recommend you get help in
putting together a program of
personal recovery. The good
news is a small change will
make a big difference to your
score.
29. How to increase our
BHI
• We can increase our
happiness levels by...
• Developing a sense of
awareness and living in the
present.
• Also acceptance and a sense
of gratitude increases our BHI.
• However laughter and smile
are considered to be the best
options.
30. Thank you :-)
