Podcast Overview

Welcome to GET HAPPIER. We would all like to be a bit happier, right? Join Paul Dolan, author of a couple best-selling books about happiness plus a Professor of Behavioural Science at the LSE in this 10 x 10 series where he seeks to explain what the science of happiness tells us about how to be happy. Each episode is 10 minutes and the series is entitled 'Get Happier' - each letter of those two words is the first letter of the title of each episode. GET HAPPIER is a not self-help series. It’s a guide through the evidence on the causes and consequences of happiness that will help you navigate your own way towards being happier. Remember, there is no one size fits all approach to being happier but there are some important lessons we can all learn about happiness.

He intends to foster a community of individuals who can make society happier using rigorous and relevant evidence with minimal effort.

Get happier for life, not just for Christmas

The holiday season is upon us. Despite all the ‘Happy Christmases’ and well wishes, this time of year can be pretty stressful. Professor Paul Dolan shares a dozen tips to guide you through the coming weeks. There are three tips for each of the four stages of the coming season; how to prep for Christmas, what to do during, how to celebrate New Year’s and how to handle New Year’s resolutions. This is a special bonus episode from the Get Happier series, and like all others, comes in at less than ten minutes.
