    IMHO, having a sense of meaning is more important than having happiness because life is basically sad.😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉

      As Mina Sahrei also shared there is a book about Logotherapy a type of therapy created by Viktor Frankl . The basis of the therapy is people need meaning in their lives and without it- there is depression and emptiness. He wrote a classic book on Logotherapy

    A Simple Recipe for Eudaemonia or Happiness from Affective Neuroscience
    HYPOTHESIS: Dopaminergic activity will stimulate endogenous opioid systems when the latter are in a non-suppressed state.
    EXPLANATION AND ‘PROOF’: Activity that involves continuous positive act/outcome discrepancy or novelty (productive or meaningful behavior) while the covert musculature is inactive (a resting state) will result in heightened feeling of pleasure and arousal, or ‘eudaemonia’, ‘flow’, or ‘peak’ experience. This derives from the observation that neuro-muscular tension (or stress) inhibits endogenous opioid (pleasure) release, while relaxation accentuates it, the latter permitting opioid systems to be further stimulated by dopaminergic activity (arousal) elicited by meaningful behavior.
    The reason this explanation does not appear evident from general observation is that its counterpart as ‘flow’ or ‘peak’ experience is described through literary metaphor and not scientific language and obscures the independent and dependent measures that accurately describe it. The virtue of this explanation is that it is easily testable by anyone. Just get into a relaxed state (mindfulness protocols are the best way to do this) and then exclusively pursue or anticipate pursuing productive activity for periods of a half hour or so, and voila, you will have a flow or eudaemonic experience. It is that simple.

    I like her way of hectic storytelling. She might find a more bother'less attitude with vipassana meditation or some buddh. teachings.

    Not at all in agreement. here. Danes have a way to survive (hygge) - built in and since child. Nobody I know will take 5 minutes of happiness. We think the other way round. We're used to find the best way of life through even the baddest of times. Most here think positively. (Finn-Denmark) - we trust eachother in Denmark!
