This happiness boost is something critical to us all: Belonging.

Belonging: It's Not Just for Dogs and Cornhole Teams

Even the most independent go-getters need connection. Belonging isn’t a “nice to have”—it’s hardwired into us, right after food, water, and let’s be honest, strong Wi-Fi.

Whether it’s family, friends, your trivia crew, or your golden retriever—having people (or pets) who "get" you makes life richer, funnier, and more manageable.

• So this week, join something.
  Say yes to that running club.
  Show up at the book club (even if you didn’t finish the book).
  Dance to Taylor Swift in your kitchen. It counts.

Because strong relationships = strong minds = better everything.
