Dr. Laurie Santos is a Professor of Psychology at Yale University and an expert on human cognition, decision-making, and the search for happiness. A couple of years ago, her course “Psychology and the Good Life”- which is now called “The Science of Well-Being“- became the most popular class in the 319-year history of Yale. It teaches students how the science of psychology can provide valuable hints about how to make wiser choices and live a life that’s happier and more fulfilling.
Dr. Santos has been a featured TED speaker (her talk: A Monkey Economy as Irrational as Ours) and was listed in Popular Science as one of their “Brilliant Ten” young scientists in 2007. In 2019, she launched her podcast, The Happiness Lab, which takes you through the latest scientific research and shares some surprising and inspiring stories that will forever alter the way you think about happiness.
I was so inspired by our conversation, and I’m sure you will be too! Remember: Happiness, freedom, and hope are available for you. I know this episode will bring you encouragement and practical steps to make happiness your reality.
Join me on Episode 961 to learn the 5 keys to long-term happiness and prosperity with the incredible Dr. Laurie Santos!

My 3 Truths: Be yourself always Show kindness to others Humor is a healing factor

[@lidiakucmierz6147]

It is very important to practise at least one of this three: 1. gratitude 2. meditation 3. act towards your goals

[@lewishowes]

Yes!

[@ReganHillyerCoach]

That's true!

[@areshudson4508]

you probably dont care but does someone know a trick to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost the account password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me.

[@InitiateChangeSparkPeace]

Whoever is reading this I pray for peace, wisdom, understanding, knowledge, and great health. May we come together and walk in unity so we can have love for one another.

[@elmacaplin6397]

To me, happiness means being fulfilled because of a purposeful life we lead. Figuring out what our purpose is so it can energize us daily is key.

[@hamzakhaan2319]

But sometimes we have some purpose we still felt empty. I think the problem is we find purpose but we chose different strategy for it to achieve, to have a purpose, a good strategy, and love for the journey which lead to it is source of happines.

[@tomharvey5466]

A long walk resets my thinking

[@UpcoachBusinessGrowthPrograms]

Thanks for this video man and to Laurie. We need so much positivity in the midst of all the negativity we face. It's really important to be grateful. At the end of the day, meditate on the things that you are grateful for. Because sometimes, when we are so focused on the things that we want, we tend to forget the things we've had in our hands, things we've already achieved.

[@nickpsailainternational547]

Yes!! Thanks for this.

[@jezlbacolod7583]

nice work

[@jezlbacolod9002]

very well said, curious about what you do.

[@leejezzy6103]

super agree upcoach

[@SupremeSotiwong]

As an introvert, it's easy to get influenced by external stimuli and keep looping narratives in my head. I've been letting social media sap my creative drive over the past few days. Now it's time to get out of my head and ground myself with martial arts--Muay Thai and Capoeira.

[@davem6226]

Probiotics getting your microbiome right will have a great effect more than I realized until I did it and changed my diet.

[@laralwilde]

Exactly right!

[@groves19881]

Literally on this route now, changing my diet for say and getting rid of that sweet tooth at night, yogurt instead of my sweets like normal past few weeks, one small step for many others to come :)

[@Irene_Jennifer_Krucker]

I took the online class science of well being during quarantine and it was a big support for this period of time. Thank you Laurie for your great work. 🤗💖⚡️

[@Cipema100]

Thank you again, Lewis, for an interview with an incredible guest. I have listened to Happiness Lab from the beginning and love the positive messages she shares. You have so many helpful guests that have given me so much insight into how to grow in both my personal and professional life.

[@lewishowes]

Thank you so much!

🙏🙏

[@wolfgangberndt3481]

What a great interview with so many gems in it! Some I noted: 16:00 the importance of giving vs receiving, btw already the Bible notes it: Remember that our Lord Jesus said, “More blessings come from giving than from receiving.” Acts 20:35 CEV bible.com/bible/392/act.20.35.CEV 22:12 "happy people don't do that" (staring at their phone while being with somebody) 32:00 "Panic scrolling" - loved that expression 😁 34:20 the importance of breath 35:45 dealing with bad information and looking for the good 38:50 the story of the second arrow 39:48 what you CAN control 44:00 re wiring 48:04 craving vs liking, two very different brain functions

[@lewishowes]

Thanks for watching! 🙌

[@happyfitnessguy]

You are an amazing incredible person. I listen to you daily. I struggle to become and knowingly be the best version of myself. One day.

[@valvrj]

Thanks for the episode, Lewis! Been starting to practice meditation more recently as the stress and anxiety during this outbreak has gone up. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't but at least I am trying.

[@lewishowes]

Thank you! 🙌

[@drewsson]

If you want to be happier, healthier and have more energy in life. Take action and define what motivates you to change and look at them every day. This is the reason I started my KZbin channel. 💪✨

Thinking and teaching about happiness must make you more happy, compared to all the people who love to talk about not doing or why something is not possible... 🙂

[@keripeoi1117]

For me whose always turned to others, I need to recharge. Sitting in nature, finding happiness in the smaller things. I like to sit with myself to eat oysters and I cancel thoughts that I find don’t serve me. I talk to these thoughts and say: I know you are here to protect me, I love you, I don’t need you, you can go now. When something outside of myself comes as a challenge, I ask, what is this situation here to teach me.

[@tomharvey5466]

Depression is mistaken sometimes from the anxiety from boredom.

[@lovehappiness3911]

Jesus saves. Only God can give that Love, Joy, and Peace. Nothing compares to that...

[@IsitReallyrealreally]

too simple

[@ingegerdtheresesorrell338]

Yes, but important to know that Jesus, God Heaven is also within yourself. So hang out a lot in there. It will change your life🛀❤️🏋🏻‍♂️🧗‍♀️

[@makaylahollywood3677]

Great Interview. How about an interview with Dr. Bruce Lipton, or did you already. Thank you!!!

[@happyandhealthy888]

as far i can reach the basics level. 🙂

[@alia957]

When I consume too much information like social media or even at work if I have millions things to, my anxiety goes thru the roof

[@TheShepdawg9]

Wait wait wait... you think 'Airplane' is a bad movie?! It's the second highest rated comedy movie of all time. Give it some love lady!

[@ssing7113]

so quit my work, and go fishing with my buddies reminiscing and chatting, while bringing a stranger.... GOT IT!

[@gigid9606]

this whole video is about the next generation finally discovering something we already know: quit being so selfish and do something for others! Share with others, give things away that you dont need. Buy someone a coffee or just be nice (hey what a concept) to a coworker instead of thinking about yourself. its about connecting with others and getting your head out of your cell phone, people! SMH. we already know this instinctively as humans. Its sad if parents arent teaching this before you even get into school as a child. Why dont parents teach this

[@wendydelucca6918]

Great information Lewis, thank you!

[@lewishowes]

Thank you, Wendy! 😃

[@Arzucowell]

People became empty because they have lost connection to God, to the One who gave us life and became ungrateful, began to change everything to feel in power instead of embracing all what was given, trying to understand Him ☝️and how this life works and finding answers and meaning...

[@phybyravindersir1043]

Nice episode

[@TOLupe-ty6jb]

Ok I'm a 39 year old man who stands about 5'3 and I hate it! I was also born with a bladder that looks like a Christmas tree and so I constantly get UTIS, but the worst part of it is when I have to go to the restroom I can't wake up like a normal person should so it has caused me to be a bed wetter all my life so I have never had a girlfriend 😭! I was also raised by 2 very over controlling parents who never gave me my own wings to fly! Because of it I feel sooooo far behind in life help!!!!

[@batiyahyisrael]

Chris, maybe you should be gluten free. Stop eating wheat. Stopping wheat helps improve many health conditions as well as gives a better outlook on life. (Wheat consumption has been linked to depression) Look into Dr. William Davis' videos and books. 'Wheat Belly' is his most popular one. I'm not sure directly how it will affect your uti, but it should help. I've been wheat free since 2015. It's the best dietary decision I've ever made. Blessings. ✌💗

[@cindysholtis3406]

Chris Lupe Most people don't have your courage to be so honest. That's just one positive aspect of your personality to be proud of. Aside from consulting a urologist, I've recently seen a bedside product advertised that alleviates incontinence. In any case, you're way too young to give up. Try to stay more upbeat by not focusing on dysfunctional childhood memories that keep us stuck in the past and pray for the solution to be revealed to you.

Finland and Denmark are the happiest countries in the world, what can we learn from them?

[@tomharvey5466]

I think in Denmark it is not proper to show unhappiness.... So, they may be faking it but making it ... The source was a video interview

[@mariachristineesguerra2941]

The one thing that really helps me to keep focused on my goals and to make constant progress is Forwago. I would recommend everybody to give it a try.

[@JesusMirkoHernandezAlfaro]

Dr. Laurie Santos at minute 15:12 to16:18 talking about giving to others, but what happens when you have never have anything? I was really poor when i was child and we work since i was 7 years old hard to give that money to my mother to she buy food and cleaning our clothes, when i grew up i keep giving money to her so stress for that action i did to giving everything and i have anything for myself. Since my brother and my family got out of this economy conditions and I still keeping giving to everyone. Once i SEE a picture of myself and i saw the same clothes i wear in every of my pictures, I see my shoes and my face so stress because i did give my time, my money and my patience to everyone else and I have not treat myself ever. iTS WORNG OR BAD?

[@noelplazo3404]

[@Passion84GodAlways]

I'm excited for this episode but I'm only 7 minutes in and Dr. Laurie Santos has already been interrupted so many times it's a little frustrating. 😩 This topic is fascinating so I'm going to try to ignore it and just hope that lessens as the interview continues. 🤞

[@Passion84GodAlways]

@rawbirbella justthat - Maybe this was a one-off &/or related to the fact this was an online interview? I've watched quite a few of his other interviews when he's face-to-face with them and I don't recall him cutting his guests off often.

[@lewishowes]

🙏🙏😳

[@spookshow]

Took her course and felt worse by the end of it.

[@me-lg1yw]

Dr Laurie, I've watched 3 videos in the past 2 weeks where you discuss this topic and I think you are brilliant. However, your take on Airplane is absurd. Airplane is a masterpiece in the parody comedy genre. ha ha. btw I'm an older gen-X'r.

[@BetterTopicsCardGameforCouples]

I really like your personality as well and overall your channel and I really reaaaaaallyyyyy need your opinion on something.
