From Stressed to Happiness Movie Review & Easter Message - EP 087

Today I am doing a movie review because it fits the intention behind the spring season. The movie is From Stress to Happiness which I recently watched on Netflix. It is a documentary that explores the journey to achieving happiness and well-being through the teachings of Matthieu Ricard. Matthieu is a well-known Buddhist monk, author, and speaker. In the film, they say that Matthieu is known as the "happiest man in the world,"! He briefly talks to a talk show host about the science that measured him so that they could claim this to be true. Credit is given to Dr. Tania Singer for her work as a social neuroscientist, psychologist, and world expert on empathy. One of my favorite parts in this film is when Matthieu and Alejandro De Grazia are walking through nature Alejandro looks miserable and is talking as if he is stressed out. During his nature walks with Matthieu, he is complaining about the weather while it is raining. Matthieu appears to be in his bliss and he is about 20 feet away from Alejandro which implies that happiness has nothing to do with your environment. Watch the film and let me know what you think!Maria Kauffman - Engineer, Superheroine, Podcaster:For access to the full blog posts go here.Discover more about Maria Kauffman by going here.Schedule a Discovery Call to be a guest on the show here!
