Episode description

In this episode, I explore the paradox of happiness. I suggest we shift our focus from the relentless pursuit of joy and achievement. Instead, focus on cultivating peace with the present moment.

I mean to question the limitations of popular self-help advice (which I have listened to) that emphasises searching for happiness is missintruptred as living in the present. I offer this; if we foster acceptance without understanding (without knowing) we can experience genuine peace and contentment.
