Really? no, Really? The Secret to Happiness + The Happiest Person on Earth
Peter discovered that the most popular course in Yale’s over 300-year history was the “Class on Happiness”. Really, no Really!
In the modern era, happiness has become an industry, with motivational speakers and self-help gurus promising to teach techniques that unlock the gates to everlasting joy. Yet for many, happiness remains elusive because it’s influenced by numerous factors and is a deeply personal and subjective journey.
Since Jason and Peter (both experts when it comes to anxiety) are both aware of the greatly increased rates of depression in today's society, they decided to go to Yale in search of answers and possibly some personal joy!
Dr. Laurie Santos is a Professor of Psychology and Head of Silliman College at Yale University, and teaches Psychology, and the Good Life - the happiness class. Dr. Santos created the course after witnessing and researching how depressed and overwhelmed her students and young people generally are. Give a listen... and you may find that your mindset changes… for the better.
