Are You Happy? The Secret Behind a Smile

Meaningful Life Skills with Rabbi Simon Jacobson - A podcast by Rabbi Simon Jacobson

Happiness is so crucial to life and yet often so elusive. Many people say, “If things are going well, I’d be happy.” The truth is: If you were happy, things would be going well! So how can we become happy? Is there a trick, a method to finding more happiness in our lives? Or are we destined to our predisposed disposition? Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson for this unique program on happiness. Discover that when you smile you can actually generate happiness. Scientific studies show that when you smile (even a fake one) your brain releases neurotransmitters, including dopamine, serotonin and endorphins. Happiness is not just what happens to us, but it is actually what we create and initiate. We have the power to generate tremendous joy and happiness in our lives, despite our circumstances and vicissitudes. This life changing lesson will be sure to improve and transform the quality, joy and productivity in every aspect of your experience — from your daily routines to your bigger milestones.
