In this segment sponsored by BetterHelp on Big Think, we dive into the tumultuous journey towards happiness. Happiness, a concept often misconstrued as a mere beaming smile, is more profound than meets the eye. It's not about the external facade but the inner joy that radiates from a smiling soul, as Aristotle's eudaimonia suggests. Drawing parallels to Daoism, life's pathways to happiness resemble a dense forest, with some routes as smooth as a superhighway and others laden with challenges like swamps and thorns.
The speaker sheds light on the three pillars of happiness: the notion that happiness transcends mere pleasure, emphasizing the importance of moving beyond hedonistic pursuits to find true fulfillment. Delving into the complexities of human existence, the journey to genuine happiness can be arduous, particularly when grappling with mental well-being. BetterHelp, the segment's sponsor, offers a lifeline to those navigating the treacherous waters of anxiety, with a significant percentage reporting improved symptoms after engaging in therapy for just six weeks.
As the late spring ushers in a season of heightened anxiety and societal expectations, the pressure to partake in social gatherings and revelries can be overwhelming. The relentless barrage of picture-perfect moments on social media can breed feelings of inadequacy and a fear of missing out. BetterHelp stands ready to connect individuals with licensed therapists who can provide the support needed to navigate these challenges and steer them towards a brighter, more fulfilling path. By visiting betterhelp.com/bigthink, one can take the first step towards reclaiming their happiness and receive 10% off the first month of therapy, while also supporting the invaluable content provided by Big Think.
