Episode #4: I just want to be happy.
from Intellectual Freedom Podcast · host David D. Hopkins, PhD
What does it mean to be happy? There are polls, surveys, studies done every year attempting to rate our happiness on a numeric scale. It is almost comical the attempt to turn human happiness into a simplistic model. If we really think about it, the answer to happiness, what it is, how do we achieve it, when we achieve it can we keep are age-old questions as complex as the human brain. We will look back to the ancients and Aristotle in his book Nichomachean Ethics he attempts to explain the types of happiness, and leaves us with a very clear picture of what true happiness is all about. Where we actually find happiness is nowhere near what the average person would think. Much wisdom is found on finding happiness in the words of Aristotle and this podcast will explore happiness in detail.Send us Fan MailFollow the Intellectual Freedom Podcast on Social Media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61581532813468 X : https://x.com/Int_Freedom_podLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/intellectual-freedom-podcast
