Fred Edwords of the America Humanist Association “ A Humanist Approach to a Happier Life”.

The United Nations General Assembly named March 20 of each year as the International Day of Happiness. This was to recognize “the relevance of happiness and well-being as universal goals and aspirations in the lives of human beings around the world.” It is accompanied by the annual World Happiness Report that ranks countries by their happiness levels. This and other efforts today reveal that serious university professors, scientists, researchers, and policymakers are now studying happiness.

But what is happiness exactly? This talk explores the latest research and provides tested pathways to get there, showing that emotional self-management in the context of a purpose-driven life, punctuated with occasional moments of joy or delight, generates what we call happiness and flourishing.

Adult Discussion Group will be meeting in person @ 9:45AM in Thoreau’s Clark Cabin except on the third Sunday of each month when we will meet in the Sanctuary @ 11AM.

Masks are now optional. The AC and HEPA filter will be running to keep Clark Cabin & the Sanctuary as safe as possible.

For those that prefer: We will provide ZOOM via the OWL system when we meet in the cabin & our Moderator Tamara will recognize your hand up and add you to the queue.

On the Third Sunday our 11AM presentation will be via Facebook.
