Do you want to be happier?
"You now have the knowledge and the power to take control of your own happiness. By doing that, you can help but make the world a better place."
I stopped reading the newspaper and started reading a good book in the morning. It made a huge impact in our lives. If you aren't a reader, there is another way. In a 2004 study, participants wrote for 20 minutes each day for three days about either a positive life experience or a control topic. Writing about positive experiences led to higher level of happiness, improved physical health and increased focus for up to six weeks after the writing exercise. In a 2019 study, researchers at the University of Cambridge found that positive memory activation dampened cortisol responses and improved mood. In the 4 Part Happiness Series four scientifically proven strategies to create deeper purpose and meaning in your life were shared. We'd love to hear the impact they have in your life.
In this episode, you will learn the following:
1. A simple, proven strategy to create purpose and meaning in your life.
2. The immediate positive results and long term benefits of writing about positive experiences.
3. How taking control of your own happiness can help make the world a better place.
