Happiness can feel calm. Happiness can also feel like a rush of adrenaline. Some people find they are happiest in moments they least expect. Others find happiness tucked away in bigger milestones. The one thing that most agree on, is that happiness means something different to everyone. 

Today, we’re talking about happiness with Dr. John Zelenski, a professor of psychology and the Director of Carleton University’s Happiness Laboratory. Dr. Zelenski is a happiness researcher and he’s spent his career learning about personality traits and how connecting with nature affects our level of happiness.

We’ll talk about what happiness is, how it’s frequently measured and the wisdom we can use from ancient philosophers, who have long wondered what constitutes a good life.
