A new episode of Tracks for the Journey in live!

Everyone wants happiness. What if we are missing a key ingredient. Altruism is proven to bring well-being. So let’s be intentional! In this episode, I explore the evidence that giving to help others changes our body and mindset. Choosing these acts on a regular basis may be the ingredient that moves our happiness to a new level.

The episode begins…

“More than a quarter of a million sick children in Lubbock County, Texas received medical care in the past 50 years--for free. In an era of rising medical costs, how can this take place? Volunteers are the secret. Hundreds of people have given time and energy with no remuneration to help the kids at the Sick Children’s Clinic. But there is a payback for these workers: emotional well-being. Studies show that helping others is a foundation for a happy life.

Let’s explore the subject of how we attain happiness. All of us want to be happy. Yet it can be elusive. The topic has been the object of theories and experiments for centuries. Modern, evidence-based research has now established a fact that is vital for each of us. Doing things to help others is a proven path to a happy life.”
