Help me improve my wellbeing

Neuropsychologist Dr Harvey Jones interviews Clinical Psychologist Dr Damon Ashworth on how people can improve their overall well-being. Well-being can be a really wide and poorly defined topic, but most people that do come into therapy do so because they are hoping to improve their lives in some way.

When you think of wanting to improve your life, what does it look like to you?

Would you like to feel happy all the time? Content or satisfied with your life? Or feeling less sad or anxious?

What factors do you think would lead to optimal well-being, or people living their best lives? Is it about being famous or rich? Envied by others? Is it having lots of positive emotions? Lots of engagement or flow in your life? Relationship warmth, or how close and connected you are to others? A sense of meaning or purpose? Or just winning a lot and having a big sense of achievement or accomplishment?

Harvey and Damon explore all of these topics and more.
