Description

Walk past any self-help book shelf or tune into any better-living podcast and you’ll be told that happiness is the end goal we all should be chasing. But… is it, actually? In Volume I of What Matters Most, close friends Jacqui Maguire, a clinical psychologist, and Antonia Prebble, actor and presenter, are tackling the pursuit of happiness. First off, how should we actually define happiness? Turns out, there are two types – hedonia, which is a fleeting experience or feeling; and eudemonia, which is more about living a meaningful life.

To help us narrow down what we find meaningful, Jacqui walks Antonia and the listener through one of her favourite visualisation exercises, and talks about how identifying her own values helped shift her out of a difficult life patch. By working out our values, we can then ask ourselves if they’re being reflected in our daily lives – and how we can increase them, building a far more sustainable type of happiness.
