Happiness & motivation

Today we have more opportunities than ever before; more access to information, more possessions, more opportunity to travel, more ways to communicate with each other, but still happiness seems to elude us.

In this workshop we use a scientific approach to look at how we can bring more happiness into our lives and increase our motivation, so we can enjoy a life where we are thriving and flourishing, both at work and beyond.

Happiness is not merely the absence of sadness. It is a state where feelings of joy and contentment are frequently experienced. But all too often we fall into the trap of favouring short-term pleasure over long-term happiness. Through a combination of science-backed techniques and self-assessment, we teach attendees how to achieve more happiness in their lives and bust some commonly held myths around happiness.

In this workshop we cover:

Happiness; what is it for and why is it important?
The four ‘happiness hormones’ and how they affect us
The eight happiness essentials: pleasure, growth, relationships, mind-set, fulfilment, contribution, health & play
Motivation: finding your why
Motivation 3.0; a new theory on motivation
Intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation
