My top science-based hacks to be happier (& "Severance" inspired wellness session)

Intro inspired by the Apple TV's Severance & the wellness session scene with Ms Casey. Hope these science-based hacks can help you feel happier and be more positive! Harvard's article on the placebo effect that I quoted: https://www.health.harvard.edu/newsletter_article/the-power-of-the-placebo-effect Studies on gratitude: Being Thankful for What You Have: A Systematic Review of Evidence for the Effect of Gratitude on Life Satisfaction (2023) Things discussed: - impact of emotional regulation, especially dealing with complex, negative emotions (anger, sadness, loneliness) on our happiness - impact of placebo effect (how thoughts and attitudes impact behaviour) - how to quit negative or toxic-self talk and why it matters for our optimism - the importance of gratitude for a positive outlook on life and happiness Subscribe: https://youtube.com/lostinadmiration Instagram: https://instagram.com/lostinadmiration/ Buy me a coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/lostinadmiration I CREATE BECAUSE... I want to embrace vulnerability and authentically share my very imperfect journey towards a happier, healthier life, trying to let go of worrying, overthinking, perfectionism and people pleasing. I am far from having it all figured out but I hope that as I learn, grow and improve I can share something that can also inspire you on your own path. Subscribe to follow along!
