Increasing your happiness doesn’t have to be rocket science; true happiness and wellbeing go hand-in-hand with joyful living and learning to embrace simplicity, and a big part of self improvement involves learning to stop relying on others for your happiness and instead cultivating happiness for yourself. This week in the Let’s Talk About Mental Health podcast I’m talking about simple and practical ways to be happier so you can feel more satisfied and fulfilled in your life, and improve your mental health (including many tips drawn from the field of positive psychology, which is the study of what makes us thrive in life).
