243 // Happiness and the Hedonic Treadmill
The Mindful Kind - A podcast by Rachael Kable
Hello and welcome to episode 243 of The Mindful Kind podcast. In this episode, you'll learn why exciting changes and experiences don't necessarily lead to long-term happiness thanks to a theory called the "hedonic treadmill." However, I've also found some strategies that can enhance long-term happiness, including: Knowing that material things don't always create real happiness Engaging in regular self-care Trying to accept that all emotions are temporary Practicing mindfulness and gratitude And, you'll hear some exciting news about two courses I've created, including a free online self-care mini-course and an amazing mindfulness online course! My newsletter subscribers will be the first to hear when the courses launch, so make sure you're signed up at rachaelkable.com/subscribe. Thank you so much for listening and I hope you have a wonderful week, Mindful Kind!
