46 - The How of Happiness - How Happy Are You and Why?

What's on Your Bookshelf?

Get ready for an enlightening journey through the realm of happiness, as we, your hosts, Denise Russo and Samantha Powell, dissect the insightful guide, "The How of Happiness". We promise that by the end of this episode, you'll have a clearer understanding of your happiness set points and the power you possess to enhance them. We delve into the science of happiness and dispel common misconceptions, emphasizing that happiness isn't an elusive treasure to be found but a state of being that exists within us.
What if your happiness could be measured and influenced by your actions and environment? We explore this fascinating concept, sharing insights from a movie that uncovers happiness in unexpected places and personal anecdotes about our own quests for joy. We also introduce a unique self-assessment tool that can help you discover your happiness set point. We challenge the belief that changing circumstances is the key to happiness, instead, we believe in the power of perspective and personal growth.
Finally, we discuss the topic of lasting happiness. We shed light on how to overcome genetic programming and introduce the concept of hedonic adaptation. The idea is to understand ourselves better and pursue activities that resonate with our interests, values, and needs, leading to genuine and sustained happiness. As a heartfelt thank you, we offer some exciting book recommendations for our listeners, and look forward to continuing the conversation next week!
