People who are
happy are not immune from sadness and depression. They have the
capacity to return to their normal state. This is the discovery of
many kinds of observers from around the world. It is a complex of
genetics, brain chemistry, behavior, and thinking. Every human can be
happy, even though many have a greater propensity to be happy.
Everyone can eat and exercise and relax in order for their brains to
operate at its optimum. Everyone can exercise more and with variety.
Everyone can change the way they think – and even change the way
their brain works in doing so!
This
documentary combines real life stories – some powerfully uplifting,
some tragic, some ordinary – to demonstrate what experts in
sociology, psychology and neuroscience tell us about happiness
research.
This film
reminds us about being in the “Flow,” acceptance, the “Hedonic
Treadmill,” repaying the loan of life with interest, appreciation,
noticing what I have that I can give away, and the Gross National
Happiness index!
76 minutes in
