St. Joe’s Prep “Habits of Happiness” Series

April 23, 2023 by Dr. Scott Glassman

I recently finished a 3-part “Building Habits of Happiness” series with the 9th and 10th-grade classes at St. Joe’s Preparatory School in Philadelphia. The young men who participated in this program were brimming with positive energy, supportive of each other, and willing to explore mind-body concepts in exciting new ways.

Why are Californians So Happy?

January 4, 2023 by Dr. Scott Glassman

California cities often rank among the highest in the nation when it comes to happiness.  I shared some of the research that could help explain why in an interview with reporter Gianna Melillo from The Hill.  Countries like Finland and Denmark, which consistently top the World Happiness Report, offer great insight into this question. Some of the contributing systemic factors to happiness in these countries are:
