A Dad's Path - Podcast autorstwa Will Braunstein
Kategorie:
Today we speak with Michael Rucker, Author of the upcoming book The Fun Habit: How the Pursuit of Joy and Wonder Can Change Your Life. Michael is a charter member of the International Positive Psychology Association and has been a follower of positive psychology for years. He realized that chasing happiness can actually make you less happy and can lead to mental illness after losing his younger brother and being told he needed a hip replacement. This inspiring conversation will hopefully get you in the "Fun Habit." We discuss: Specific ideas to improve your base level of happiness and well-being. How giving your kids more autonomy can help with their joy. How to create "fun habits." The importance of focusing on activities that bring joy rather than seeking happiness directly. The potential negative effects of focusing on happiness during times of change or loss. The psychological research supporting the idea of having a bias toward joyful activities. ------------------ Find more Dad Podcasts from A Dad's Path, a website for dads.
