Most of us need technology for work and for play. The internet and our phones can help us maintain our social connections – and we know those are key to happiness. But many people are addicted to these tools in a way that’s decidedly not making us happier. Mindless scrolling, constant comparisons and the avalanche of bad news can leave us feeling numb, disconnected and anxious. So how do we strike the balance of using technology without it negatively impacting our mood? Garvia speaks with happiness researcher Dr. Gillian Mandich about our relationship with technology and how to manage it to maintain our well-being - including how much screen time is too much and why younger generations are having an even harder time.

Happiness. We all know what it feels like, but it can be tricky to define. In the first episode of Happy Enough, we’re looking to get on the same page. What is happiness, anyway? Garvia speaks with Bruce Hood, professor of developmental psychology at the University of Bristol, and author of the new book ‘The Science of Happiness’. They discuss the definition of happiness, how people can learn to be happier in their everyday lives, and why self-help isn’t the answer. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
