Our second session in this 4-part series is “The Science of Joy and Happiness” with Elissa Epel, PhD, Darwin Guevarra, PhD, Demond Hill, and Peggy Callahan.  After the viewing, we'll host a discussion about the topic and how it applies to our lives. 

 What You'll Learn 

• Understand the latest science of happiness and why happy people on average live longer, have stronger immune systems, are more resilient to stress and trauma, are more likely to marry and less likely to divorce, and more.
• Hear about the Big Joy Science Project and how daily micro acts of Joy can increase your happiness and wellbeing
• Be led in a gratitude practice that you can try at home

All are welcome. Tea and coffee will be served.
