Dating Den Episode 99 – With Carin Rockind: Soulful, Scientific, Simple, Happiness Tips You Can Use Now to Accelerate Your Path to Love
“I take happiness very seriously. It is a creed a philosophy and an objective” ~ Helen Keller
The facts are troubling… happiness is at an all time low.
What’s worse is that women are statistically more depressed than men – and depression is beginning earlier and earlier in our lives.
Despite what we’ve been told achievement is NOT the key to happiness and well-being.
Marni welcomes leading happiness expert, Karen Rockind to discuss the simple daily decisions you can make to create more joy in your life. Karen is the creator of Purpose Girl, a movement that empowers purpose driven living, and Women’s Global Happiness Day.
She has taught thousand of people real-life strategies to reclaim their happiness, to live to the fullest potential of success and well-being. She is a survivor of divorce, domestic abuse, and a life-changing armed robbery which proved as a catalyst for her to finally pursue her passion of helping women thrive.
The Science of Happiness [5:41]
For millennia, psychologists studied only illnesses including anxiety and depression even though only 30% of the population had a diagnosed mental illness. When about 20-years ago, a professor decided that instead of ignoring 70% of the population he would integrate the study of happiness into his work.
Now, conventional wisdom and social pressures have made many women believe they must meet a certain criteria in order to be happy. But, Carin says it’s not true. Women may have been taught achievement will make us happier but research shows the opposite. Happiness should come first.
Surviving is not thriving!
