How to be Happy

Ancient Wisdom For a Happier Modern Life


Listen Later

Paul Callaghan is an Aboriginal man from the land of the Worimi people near Newcastle on the NSW coast who has a great passion for storytelling. At 35 – when life looked about as successful as it could get - he suffered a nervous breakdown. He describes it as the best thing that ever happened to him because it set him on a course of self-discovery and reconnection with Aboriginal spirituality. This episode is about how an ancient culture and spirituality holds many clues for living a happier modern life.

On this episode you’ll learn 

  • How to find 10 out of 10 moments in your everyday life 
  • The practical things you can do to find more joy 
  • How the values of “knowing, being and doing” from Indigenous culture have value in the modern world 
  • The one principal for happiness that lays the foundation for all others
  • The value of being on country, or in nature, for your emotional health
  • The importance of discovering your purpose
  • How to weather the big storms in your life
