You're Doing Happiness All Wrong. Science & Spirituality Agree: Well-Being is a "Skill"

The research is in, and yup...Well-being is a SKILL! As holiday season approaches, we get flooded with messages about happiness and joy against the backdrop of consumerism and self-sacrifice: "get your loved ones these gifts so that they'll be happy, and then you can be  happy, and everyone'll be happy!"But...why are we all struggling with happiness?! In this episode, Kristine & Ryan unveil revolutionary research by Dr. Richie Davidson on "well-being." After meeting the Dalai Lama, Dr. Davidson started studying why some people seem to do better in the face of adversity vs. others. The results are counter to much of what you hear today - especially during this time of year. On this "can't miss" episode, you'll hear about: -The 4 Pilars of Well-Being -Why you CAN "teach an old dog new tricks" (...or human!)-Are "happiness" and "well-being" the same thing? -Are skills for well-being hard to learn?-Is social media helping or hurting rates of well-being?-Some of Ryan's pet peeves about being in the music industry-Kristine's new creative endeavor-And so much more!Mentions in this Podcast:- Dr. Richie Davidson- Dr. Brené Brown- The Dalai LamaFor contact & booking inquiries:Ryan HaganIG: www.instagram.com/[email protected] Erickson, Ph.
