What is happiness, anyway?

from Happy Enough · host Bruce Hood

Happiness. We all know what it feels like, but it can be tricky to define. In the first episode of Happy Enough, we’re looking to get on the same page. What is happiness, anyway? Garvia speaks with Bruce Hood, professor of developmental psychology at the University of Bristol, and author of the new book ‘The Science of Happiness’. They discuss the definition of happiness, how people can learn to be happier in their everyday lives, and why self-help isn’t the answer. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
