“I just want to be happy” is a common expression, but what does happiness truly mean, and why is it such a fundamental goal for so many of us? This course will help you explore these important questions, offering insights into the nature of happiness, its relationship with well-being, and strategies for achieving greater happiness in your life.
The course begins with an introduction to the concept of happiness, explaining it in the context of the ‘happiness spectrum’ and introducing the WELL-BEING framework. In Lessons 2 through 6, we’ll explore various elements of this framework, examining practical ways to enhance your happiness and well-being over time.
Throughout the course, Dr. Neil Thompson provides expert guidance to help you understand that happiness is not a constant state, but something that comes in episodes. We’ll also discuss the importance of managing expectations and understanding that well-being plays a significant role in our overall happiness.
