Dr. Alphonsus Obayuwana Reveals A Scientific Way To Self-Assess Happiness Level In The Happiness Formula

On The Table Read Magazine, “the best book magazine in the UK“, happiness coach, Dr. Alphonsus Obayuwana, released The Happiness Formula: A Scientific, Groundbreaking Approach To Happiness And Personal Fulfillment.

The Happiness Formula: A Scientific, Groundbreaking Approach To Happiness And Personal Fulfillment”

As part of his mission to support the well-being of others, physician-scientist and happiness coach, Dr. Alphonsus Obayuwana, created a groundbreaking, five-minute tool that objectively and subjectively quantifies personal happiness — simultaneously.

In his new book, The Happiness Formula: A Scientific, Groundbreaking Approach To Happiness And Personal Fulfillment, Dr. Obayuwana introduces a universal unit of measure called the “Personal Happiness Index” or PHI. This PHI, according to Dr. Obayuwana, makes it possible, for the first time ever, to calculate and assign numerical happiness scores to human individuals by plugging their unique hopes, hungers, assets, and aspirations into an equation.

It is useful to have a happiness score because no one can effectively improve what cannot be accurately measured. Your happiness score tells you where you are on the happiness spectrum and where you would rather be.

It is a book about life, the relationship between human hope and hunger, and one’s overall feeling of personal satisfaction and subjective well-being.

But Dr. Obayuwana is quick to point out that The Happiness Formula is much more than a mathematical equation for measuring happiness. The Happiness Formula challenges the findings published in the World Happiness Report of 2023, debunks three major happiness myths, and then introduces the Triple-H Equation — the simple but profound formula about what makes life worth living.

Dr. Obayuwana’s discovery offers individuals a simple but scientific way to self-assess their levels of fulfillment; provides happiness seekers with a proven routine for achieving and sustaining a flourishing life; and offers a strong theoretical basis and a firm practical structure for happiness coaches.

Alphonsus Obayuwana, MD, Ph.D., CPC, is a physician-scientist, a happiness coach, and the founder and CEO of Triple-H Project LLC, an entity that trains and certifies happiness coaches. He is a Literary Titan Gold Award–winning author who has published several peer-reviewed articles in the national medical journals about human hope and happiness. His other works include How to Live a Life of Hope (2022), The Five Sources of Human Hope (2012), Hope and Pregnancy Outcome (1984) and Hope Index Scale (1980). After 30 years of relentless research on human hope and happiness, he successfully derived the Triple-H Equation that is at the core of his newest book, The Happiness Formula.

In 1979, Dr. Obayuwana (then a medical student) was awarded a national research grant and Smith-Kline Medical Perspective Fellowship to develop an instrument for measuring human hope, with the purpose of detecting hopelessness in time to prevent suicide. The result was the widely used and often cited Hope Index Scale (HIS). This progressed into decades of research that ultimately resulted in The Happiness Formula.

Throughout his faculty tenures at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Eastern Virginia Medical school, Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine and University of Toledo, he has taught and mentored medical students, resident physicians, nurses and fellows in the art and science of caring and promoting happiness for themselves and their patients. Dr. Obayuwana is also a retired major in the United States Air Force (Reserve). He is married to Ann Louis, his wife of 47 years. Together, they have two sons and three granddaughters. For recreation, he loves walking, reading, listening to music and playing on his drum set.

For full disclosure, my own PHI is 2.923, and that means I am a ‘very happy’ person but not yet ‘flourishing’ by definition. Like everybody else, I could be happier, and with the formula revealed in this book, I now know where I am compared to anyone else in the world — who also knows his or her PHI.
