On this episode of Weights, Wine, & Wisdom, Cam and Jess take you through 7 effective habits that you can practice in order to live a happier and healthier life. Based on a FREE Online Yale Course, The Science of Well-Being, we learn why we want what we want and how to correct our mind to want the right things that will create our own intrinsic happiness. We've been told from a young age that more money, a promotion, a big house, and fancy things will make us happy. Well, turns out that wanting that "awesome stuff" leads to more unhappiness and less fulfillment. As fitness coaches and leaders of living a healthy lifestyle, we understand that our actions, behaviors, and thoughts can be collectively altered by our habits - good or bad. Listen as we explore each habit and how you can start living a happier, more fulfilling life just by practicing and integrating a few mindset rewirements. Cheers!
