Fired up: Why anger doesn’t need to be the enemy of happiness

from Happy Enough · host The Globe and Mail

Anger seems to be the collective vibe these days, whether we’re talking about politics, scrolling through social media or reading headlines. Outrage can be harmful or violent. But used correctly, experts say it can be a tool that leads to long-term happiness. Garvia speaks with Brett Ford, associate professor of psychology at the University of Toronto, about how we can manage our anger and, hopefully, feel a little bit happier.    Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
