Lauren Tober: The Common Traits of Happy People
Understanding the keys to happiness

In some way or another we are all pursuing the elusive phenomenon of happiness. But what is it? And is happiness all it’s cracked up to be?

Psychologist, Dr. Lauren Tober, distinguishes two kinds of happiness: caused happiness and uncaused happiness. The first happiness is something that comes as a result of something happening, while uncaused happiness is what yogis would call ‘ananda’ or ‘bliss.’ It is our birthright and is always with us, and we can tap into it whenever we want to as it’s always there. So perhaps we don’t need to search for happiness as hard as we’d previously thought.

Happy people have certain qualities that make them happy, says Dr. Tober, and in this interesting episode, she reveals those important traits as well as methods for tapping into our innate sense of happiness. We also have some good news to help you on the road to happiness from UPLIFT correspondent, Vanessa Hill, who reports on positive initiatives from around the globe that you might have missed.
