One of the things that I was so excited to do recently was to hug the tallest tree on earth - Hyperion. It was amazing! Another thing on the list is to interview a gold-medal olympian. Today, that happened! Listen to the whole interview for the amazing story of an olympian who came back to win gold after breaking her back and then went on to battle an almost invisible enemy: Lyme disease. Her journey is amazing. I hope you have a listen. Arianne Jones is an Olympian, a plant-based chef, a holistic nutritionist and is currently battling Lyme disease. She is a speaker a storyteller, a food photographer, a fierce goal-chaser, an elixir mixer and an unshakable optimist. As part of her luge career, she has competed not only at the Sochi Olympics, but also in 10 Canadian championships and 52 world cups. In her last World Cup, she won the gold medal representing Canada. If her story was a ride at Disneyland, it would be the Incredicoaster or perhaps the new Guardians of the Galaxy ride because it goes up and down a lot! She is a paragon of grit and someone who inspires me greatly. I first found Arianne on airbnb during the pandemic. My wife Stacie found her virtual experience of cooking a healthy dessert with an olympian. If you want to spend the night in your own kitchen learning and being inspired by Arianne, I highly recommend this experience as well!

Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thíchToday's episode is all about finding more meaning. It's a solo episode that I hope you enjoy. Here is a sneak peek: 1. Decrease Regret by Taking Action What’s something you can just do today to decrease the regret you would have in the future? Here are the top 5 regrets of the dying: I wish I had the courage to live a life true to myself rather than the life others expected of me I wish I hadn’t worked so hard I wish I had the courage to express my feelings I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends I wish I had let myself be happier What can you do to connect with your friends more? How can you arrange your life to work less? How can you be more yourself? What are you doing express your true feelings? How are you deliberately adding to your levels of happiness? 2. Commit Something to Your Life List I have a list that is growing. I had a bucket list before, but after hearing about Stacy Taniguchi’s 100 LIFE list, I changed the name. I don’t like the focus on avoidance of death or hurrying before you kick the bucket. I like the focus on LIVING and celebrating the life we have now. Here are a few things from my LIFE list: I have two categories: to accomplish and to experience. In the “To accomplish: category: Get a doctorate degree Write a lastingly relevant book Deliver a TED talk Teach over 10,000 students about how to thrive in life Give my mom a home to live in Become a blackbelt in some martial art In the “to experience” category: experience Being a dad Experience the summer Olympic Games in person A photographic tour circumnavigating the globe Thank J.K. Rowling in person Swimming next to a whale A bioluminescent beach at night with my camera Your list will be different than mine, but what I have found is that as I contemplate these experiences and accomplishments that I want to have, it makes me excited to be alive. It brings meaning to the struggle in my life. The hard stuff becomes a little less hard because I’m headed toward something. There is a book called The Happiness of Pursuit that I highly recommend. In this book, the author often talks about the importance of always having a “life-affirming quest”. What is your life affirming quest? Do you have one right now or are you just kind of floating along? No judgement. I have definitely had some moments of floating along. No matter what your job or your current vocation, adding something to your life list can be a catalyst for a life-affirming quest and make your life more meaningful. If you have things to live for, you’ll be more likely to live. Read the show notes here: https://morehappylife.co/ 6-powerful-strategies-to-increase-meaning-in-your-life /…

Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thíchDo you ever feel overwhelmed by the amount of negativity in the news? Do you doomscroll? Well, 2020 is the year of the doomscroll and it can be really hard to avoid the negativity that inundates our digital news feeds. I have spoken about the benefits of taking breaks from the news and the negative impact that constantly watching the news can have on our health. Some choose to avoid the news altogether, but with the constant changes in even our local regulations, you have to be informed. My guest on today’s episode of More Happy Life is Mauro Gatti, the creator of The Happy Broadcast , an anxiety free news broadcast that started as Mauro’s way of using his skills as an artist to decrease his own anxiety. He started looking for positive news to balance the negative news. When he combined this with his gift as an artist, The Happy Broadcast was born. He has been illustrating and sharing positive news on social media since 2018 and it is one of the most inspiring Instagram accounts I have ever followed. I even did a special episode based on the news on The Happy Broadcast. I loved my conversation with Mauro and hope you not only listen to our conversation, but that you go follow his inspiring work. We all need a little positivity boost amidst the things that are out of our control. One big takeaway I got from Mauro was to get out and do something. Even if you only watch negative news, do something to be a part of the solution! All the positive news is a result of someone who decided to take action for a good cause. In our episode we covered a lot: Why Mauro started The Happy Broadcast How hard it is to find positive news (you don’t just stumble upon it) The impact doomscrolling has on our health and how to stop doing it Why it’s important to stay informed, even amidst the negative news How to have a healthy relationship with the news and social media How to have more hope in the face of seeming doom The secret sauce to a happy life Mauro’s dream for the world More About Mauro Gatti and The Happy Broadcast Originally from Italy, Mauro Gatti lives in Los Angeles where everyone surfs except him. Mauro is an award-winning creative director, illustrator and designer who loves pizza, dogs, and imagining things. He also loves to make people happy with his art, because a smile is the cheapest route to happiness. Mauro is also the creator of The Happiness Broadcast, where he finds positive news from all over the world and creates art to depict the positive stories. His account on instagram has over 530,000 followers with even more on Facebook and Twitter. He recently published a book that just came out yesterday (September 22nd) and is both pleasing to the eye and inspiring to the soul. Buy The Happy Broadcast book here.

Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thíchSexuality and Happiness is a topic I have not discussed on the More Happy Life podcast. I have wanted to for quite some time, but I wanted to introduce it with the right person and I think Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife is the right person. This podcast talks about all things from the foundation of positive psychology research. I think positive sexuality is a really powerful topic for the listeners to hear about and to discuss on social media after hearing this episode. There is so much negativity around sexuality and desire (not just in conservative cultures like the LDS culture) and I am excited to shed a positive light on this topic with an expert. Listen today as we discuss the positive side of sex and our own innate sexuality. Some of the topics we cover: How our sexuality is linked to our wellbeing Why sex can be such a taboo topic and how to make it easier to have safe conversations about it What can help parents in talking to their children about their sexuality and sex Why it's so important to work out your own relationship with your own sexuality as a parent The concept of human embodiment and pleasure How people who believe they are addicted to sexuality can switch from victim to chooser Not just the list of "DON'Ts but also a list of DO's How to view your sexuality as a conservative single who sees themselves as older and not able to express their sexuality outside of marriage More about Dr. Finlayson-Fife Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife is a LDS relationship and sexuality coach as well as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in the state of Illinois. She has a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology.

Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thíchWhen was the last time something really hard happened to you? How did that change your life? Have you healed and moved on from this? Bruce Feiler's research showed that the average adult goes through a major disruptor about every twelve to eighteen months. And that adults face three to five big ones, what Bruce calls “lifequakes,” with an average aftermath of three to five years. This aftermath of disruptors could last over half the life of adults! I feel very strongly to help people going through major transitions and for this reason, I brought Bruce Feiler onto the show. His recent book Life Is In The Transitions is the topic of our discussion today on episode 134. We talk about the major stages of transitions that and how to best navigate those. The stages are: 1. The Long Goodbye 2. The Messy Middle 3. The New Beginning During these stages there are many common markers or milestones. Bruce gets personal with me in asking me to share more details of something that was a major lifequake for me: my divorce . It was amazing how well my experience matched the data that he has been gathering about transitions across the stories of hundreds of people all over the world in the project Bruce has called "The Life Story Project". We discuss how to best share your new self once you have made the decision to say goodbye to the old and we talk about the importance of ritual in transition. We roughly cover many of the following tools for transitioning: Accepting the new you Creating some sort of ritual to help you to symbolize the new you Adding something to yourself like learning a new skill or creating something beautiful in your life. Sharing this new self with others Crafting your new story Surround yourself with people who cheer you on as the new you About Bruce Feiler: A six-time consecutive New York Times bestselling author, presenter of two-prime time series on PBS, the inspiration of NBC’s Council of Dads, and TV host whose two TED Talks have been viewed more than two million times, today’s guest, Bruce Feiler (FY-ler), the author of the book Life is in the Transitions, joins me in an amazing episode.

Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thíchIn Episode 132, I speak with Dr. Julianne Holt-Lunstad, THE leading researcher on social isolation, loneliness, social connection and how those things impact health. Maybe you have heard the statistic that loneliness is worse for your health than smoking up to 15 cigarettes per day. Well, we dive a little deeper to clarify this notion to include the difference between loneliness and social isolation. We also talk about what a healthy socially connected life might look like. We also cover a few preliminary data points on how the coronavirus pandemic of COVID-19 has had an impact on social isolation and loneliness. Here are some of the main points from our conversation: What led Dr. Holt-Lunstad to study social neuroscience and health psychology What is the definition of an epidemic? Is there actually a loneliness epidemic in the world? What data can back this up? The impact of COVID-19 on loneliness (some data is showing a 20-30% increase in loneliness (due to social distancing). That Gen-Z has the highest prevalence of loneliness (some data shows up to 79% reporting feeling lonely) What is the difference between loneliness and social isolation? Why is social connection so important for our health? How do social connection or social isolation compare to the impacts of well researched things like exercise, sleep, smoking, etc.? What would a healthy socially connected life look like? Dr. Julianne Holt-Lunstad's advice on how to be happier: Increase social connection and emphasis on your close relationships. Positive relationships are key to a happy life. More about Dr. Holt-Lunstad: Julianne Holt-Lunstad is a professor of psychology and neuroscience at Brigham Young University, where she is also the director of the social neuroscience lab. Her research is focused on the long-term health effects of social connection and has been seminal in the recognition of social isolation and loneliness as risk factors for early mortality. Recognized as an expert in the field, Holt-Lunstad has provided expert testimony in the US Congressional Hearing, worked on the US Surgeon General’s Emotional Well-Being in America initiative, served on the advisory group for the UK Cross-Departmental Loneliness Team, and a consensus committee for National Academy of Sciences. She also serves as scientific advisor for the Australian coalition to End Loneliness, the Foundation for Art & Healing, the Rural Aging Advisory Council, AARP Services Inc. and United Healthcare; and she regularly consults tech companies as well. Holt-Lunstad has received too many awards to name and is making a positive mark on the world with her research. Her work has been highlighted in the BBC 100 Breakthrough Health Discoveries in 2015 and has been covered in the New York Times , the Washington Post , Time magazine, Scientific American , “This American Life,” the TODAY show, NPR, and many other major media outlets. I am honored to be her TEDx speaker coach for her TED talk, and something we joke about is that her research has been cited in at least 10 other TED talks and dozens of books. It’s an honor to have Dr. Julianne Holt-Lunstad on the show and I hope you listen all the way to the end for her advice on how to build a happier life.

We go into depth on many ways this is possible, but the one we really focus a lot on is getting present with our body. I loved this conversation.

Here are some of the topics we covered: Growth Mindset: Carol Dweck Byron Katie: The Work Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) The Body Keeps the Score - Dr. Bessel Vanderkolk Emotional Integration “Accessing resilience through your body is the pathway” Three degrees of influence - Nicholas Christakis and James Fowler. More about Leslie Santos: In practice for over seven years, Leslie Santos is a psychological archeologist, mindset cartographer and champion of the life-thirsty. She studied positive psychology under Martin Seligman at the University of Pennsylvania. It was while working with Seligman that she discovered how childhood adversity affects adult behaviors, an epic realization that catalyzed her mission and compelled her forward. Her working model is that all humans experience childhood hardship and through this adversity protective adaptations are formed. Left unresolved, these adaptations become maladaptive in adulthood and block our momentum forward: every earnest step toward our desire is countered by an equal force in the opposite direction. These findings led to the development of her resilience process , designed for 1:1 mentorship and corporate human development for enlightened leaders.

There isn't a labor surplus anymore and there likely won't be one for a while. What this does it it enables employees to choose between the best jobs.

Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thíchRead the full show notes at https://MoreHappyLife.co/indistractable Do you get distracted? Do you struggle to stay on task and get taken down the digital rabbit hole more often than you would like? If the answer is yes, you’re not alone. With all the technology that exists, if you aren’t deliberate about what you allow into your life, you’ll be bombarded. One study showed that the average US smartphone user receives 46 app push notifications per day! I have experienced the overwhelm and frustration that comes from coming to the end of the day and realizing that I haven’t spent enough time on the things that I valued most. This is what I love about Nir Eyal’s newest book: Indistractable . In my interview with Nir Eyal, we discuss that the source of our distraction may not be an undiagnosed case of ADHD, but that it is actually discomfort. And the critical factor for me was when he talked about matching our values with our calendars. Why? Because if we actually remember the values that are driving our calendar, it’s easier to do the things we plan. Otherwise, if our calendars do not align with our values, we will constantly be drawn away from them by even the smallest “shiny object” in our view (or our notifications). This was a game changer for me! Social media & technology are not our enemies. Our enemy is our own misalignment with our values that keeps us from experiencing what we most desire in life. We MUST prioritize values alignment or we will constantly be distracted. How can you do this? Well, read the book! Also, here is an exercise the book inspired me to create for myself: Write down the things that you value most in life. Write down all the activities you actually have in your schedule and see which of those align with the values on your list. Now write down things that you still highly value, but that are NOT on your schedule in any form. Practice gratitude for the things on your list of scheduled items that already align with your deepest desires. Add more items to your calendar that actually align with your values. Let go of 3 things that DON’T align with your values (cancel, reschedule, reprioritize). This exercise is life changing. Too many people feel down and get distracted on Monday (or any day) because they haven’t aligned their values with their schedule. Is this you? Why do you keep doing things that don’t align with your values? STOP IT! Align with your values and be more happy!

Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thíchIn episode 123, I speak with Stacy Sherman about the power of a transformational customer experience. Everyone is used to interacting with a business in a transactional way, but when a business can make a transaction into a transformation, that's when magic happens! In our conversation we discuss how to make this happen by starting at the top and moving down. If the executives are seeking to increase their own wellbeing, they will naturally desire to make the wellbeing of their employees a priority. And when the employee wellbeing and happiness becomes a priority, it can impact the bottomline in a tangible way. In other words, customer satisfaction begins with employee satisfaction and employee satisfaction begins with executive wellbeing. We also discussed how a business can create a "wow moment" by simply connecting with their customers. I shared an example of going to Smashburger on my wedding day and being wowed and she shared an experience she had of being wowed during an experience with the owner of The Lodge at Woodloch who made a genuine connection with her and her family. It seems simple, but it's powerful and it keeps customers talking. Here I am talking about Smashburger and Woodloch! Stacy's advice for people who want to have a more happy life: Stacy Sherman"Be intentional and purposeful about how you experience your day" She does this with an app she uses called The Five Minute Journal that prompts you to record your intentions for the day, what you're grateful for, what you will do to make your day go well, and how you could have improved the day. It's the simple things! If you don't already have a journaling routine to boost positive emotion, this sounds like a good app. She also emphasized the importance of surrounding yourself with people who support your goals and who don't deflate your confidence. This is critical!

Richard's experience is that there are three main obstacles to happiness and joy: Control Ownership Independence When we are obsessed with seeking after these alone, it will be a never ending cycle of ultimate dissatisfaction. However there is a way to sustainable happiness according to Richard. To replace these three with three others: Serendipity Stewardship Synergicity (synergy and synchronicity) We go into more detail about how you can move from control to serendipity, from ownership to stewardship, and from independence to synergicity. It's a beautiful conversation that really helps tap into some core issues we face when we want a more happy life.

But the hole in her heart Was there just the same. In this interview, Rose and I talk about how easy it is to get caught up in allowing other people to tell us what our worth is. However, we never should forget that it is ultimately the love we have for ourselves that is most important. This beautiful truth is illustrated in a new children's book called Little Love . More about the book: Join Little Love on her path to self-discovery where she meets Beauty and Fame, and learns the true value of her self-worth. Written for children, but with a timeless message for the child in all of us, Little Love reaffirms the importance of self-acceptance in life's journey toward love, joy, and friendship.

Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thíchHave you ever experienced something difficult or traumatic? If you're listening to this, the answer is probably yes. I believe that a huge part of happiness is the skillset we have built up that enables us to bounce back from the difficult things that happen to us. A few weeks ago, I went to the TEDxSLC event and saw Em Capito speak about what she calls "resiliency field trips." These are adventurous experiences that encourage us to get out of our comfort zone and do something intentional to challenge ourselves. It includes curiosity, fun and adventure. As a psychotherapist, Em has been helping people to have these experiences and has found that with those who have done them, a sharp decline in fear occurs. In order to qualify as a resiliency field trip, it has to have the following: 1. New - when we introduce novelty, our brain will be more likely to remember it. This is why travel is often so memorable. 2. Slightly scary - Step out of your comfort zone to push the limits of what you currently believe you are capable of. 3. Intentional - This must be something you value or something that excites you. Intentional discomfort is important to engage in if we want to overcome anxiety or make progress toward goals that we deeply value, but we are afraid to accomplish. In this interview we talk about why it is so hard to get outside of our comfort zone and why it is so important. More about Em Capito: Em Capito is an unconventional psychotherapist obsessed with the widespread loss of resilience in the face of overwhelming comfort. While studying her own trauma from the inside out, Em embarked on a series of experiments that led to a prescription of intentional discomfort. Em blends these experiential interventions with meditation and yoga therapy to build the holistic mind-body resilience that carries us through our darkest moments. She completed a master’s degree in social work at the University of Utah in 2007 and a masters in business administration at the University of Phoenix in 2011. Em is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a certified LifePower yoga teacher, and a Dharma Method meditation teacher with a private practice in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Louis and I talk about how to really create sustainable positive change in an organization through systems. We also talk about the following topics: Listening to what your heart and body need. Being the change is starting with yourself The best way to help others is by starting by helping yourself Self care is health care and it is not selfish Fill your cup, have fun, be still Louis' focus on integrity and how important it is to be true to yourself first "the universe hears what you mean, not what you say" Give yourself permission to be human and be present with what is. As a leader, we should envision the best possible futures for our people and remember the people in the middle as integral agents of change. The best leaders see others as co-leaders and the boss doesn't have all the answers. Don't wait for something to be different to be happy now.

A lot of people struggle with fatigue, or are just sapped of energy on a regular basis. I believe that increasing energy is one of the most powerful ways to have a more happy life and I want to share things that can help you boost your energy without caffeine. First, a word on caffeine. I don’t have anything against caffeine other than that it was the stimulant that triggered my first panic attack ever. So ever since then, I have chosen not to consume caffeine to boost my energy and I have had to find other ways to keep me awake when I’m having a tired day. The other thing is that caffeine doesn’t actually produce energy in your body. It is a stimulant. It basically tricks your brain into thinking that you have energy, but it doesn’t actually have the building blocks of energy that your body needs. So here are some ways to boost energy without having to rely on that cup of Joe every day. 1. Hydration 2. Move more 3. Eat smaller meals more often 4. Optimize your Breathing 5. Sleep better 6. Eat things that boost your energy 7. Decrease your Allostatic Load 8. Connect to Your Purpose and Values 9. Rock Out to Your Favorite Songs 10. Connect to People You Love 11.

If you can’t talk, leave them a Marco Polo or a voice message Use it as a transition to boost energy We lose quite a bit of energy through our day because we don’t transition.

1 102: Finding Your Reason To Live with Seth Adam Smith 38:54
38:54 Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thích38:54
Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thíchToday I interviewed Seth Adam Smith, a dear friend and amazing human being (read more about him below). Seth is a suicide survivor who has turned his life into a message to inspire people who struggle to have a reason to live. In this episode Seth talks briefly about his suicide attempt and how the world inside his head was very different from the real world around him. This didn't become evident until he was in the hospital. We talked about the idea of enjoying the paths of life slowly and how happiness is a season of emotion. Seasons are temporary and they also return so if we remember this, we will be more able to deal with the days of winter in our lives. About Seth: Seth Adam Smith is a best-selling and award winning author and blogger whose writings have been translated into over thirty languages and featured on the Huffington Post, Good Morning America, Fox News, CNN, the Today show, Forbes, and many other news outlets around the world. He wrote an article entitled "Marriage Isn't For You" that has been viewed over 100 million times across the internet and translated into languages all over the world. When his article went viral, he instantly was approached by publications and people who wanted him to write about marriage or about how to go viral. But this isn't what Seth was passionate about. He started to really ask himself "how do I make an impact?" Seth has been working since then to go from from viral blogger to suicide awareness activist. He has since given a TEDx talk and has written books, including Your Life Isn't for You, which was awarded a gold medal for inspirational memoir. A suicide survivor himself, Seth is an advocate for resources and understanding concerning depression and suicide prevention, and he regularly writes about these topics in his books and on his blog.

We breathe about 22,000 times a day, but we may not be aware of it.

You can't breathe in the past or the future, so it is a great way to stay present and stop worrying and ruminating. Just breathe.

Today's guest Samery Moras talks about how she has overcome huge obstacles and fears as she has won title after title in her Taekwondo competitions. Samery started walking with a sparring helmet. Her parents ran a martial arts studio and it has been in her life forever. However, she wasn't always a champion. "When I was younger, I was the girl crying in the bleachers and losing." What most people don't realize is that all champions start somewhere. It wasn't really until six years ago that Samery really got into Taekwondo and started to really compete. She didn't like it before because when you compete, you get hit and getting hit hurts. But she had big dreams and wanted to start winning. So she kept going. I also loved hearing about when she got injured couldn't train or compete for a year. She talked about how this was hard to let go, but she still found a way to do what she loved, just from a different angle - recording matches and posting them on YouTube. Because of this, she started to gain followers on social media and now her mission is to inspired kids to have BIG goals and to work hard on them. She shares this message on YouTube and Instagram. And she does it well because she was just selected as a 2018 YouTube NextUp creator, by YouTube! Amazing.

Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thíchWe all have a little voice inside our head that is telling us a story. Most of just let that voice chatter uncontrollably. The problem is that the voice tends to get more and more negative over the years until we begin to live according to a story that is not even true. We literally begin to live a lie. Today I interviewed Kim Fiske, best-selling author of The Monster Under The Bed: Uncovering the Lie That Drives Us. We covered a lot in this interview, but the main takeaway for me was that living according to a story that isn't true creates instant and constant unhappiness. This is a longer episode, but really got down to the truths that should drive us. Here are a few: "Just because we think it, doesn't mean it's the truth." "You can never get enough of what you never needed to begin with." "Learn to separate thought from the truth." "Love is awareness without judgement."

Nghe Sau Nghe Sau Danh sách Thích Đã thíchToday my grandma turned 99. WOW! It was a very special day for her and for our whole family. Not many people live that long. I am amazed at how long she has lived and love hearing the wisdom from someone who just entered her 100th year of life! I can't stop bragging about it. Amazing. But how does one live longer? Unfortunately, I didn't get any audio from my grandma today, but I already set up a time to record her next week where we will go into depth about how she has lived well the last 99 years. Today, I will talk about the research from National Geographic's Dan Buettner on the Blue Zones as well as Elizabeth Blackburn's Nobel Prize-winning research on telomeres and aging. Do you want to live longer? Well, these tips could add another 10 years to your life. Science shows it and so does grandma. :) Enjoy!…

Marathons are so commonly used as metaphors for life, so I thought it would be powerful to interview an actual olympic marathon runner to see how the research in positive psychology lines up with the marathon running of someone who has run on a United States Olympic team. I learned SO much from Jared on our call. Things like: -The "can do" mindset and being empowered by the reality that the best possible outcome CAN happen. -Being present in your mind by repeating mindful phrases over and over. -Success comes from the scaffolding of your relationships -The powerful galvanizing effect of making important decisions once. -Feeling a sense of calling in life may not just come to you, but you might just have to choose it. -Doing YOUR best rather than being THE best. This is an episode you'll want to listen to all the way through!…
