The Happiness Habit Programme

The skills, habits and actions for a happier, more fulfilling life can be learned.  This 10 week programme offers people the chance to learn how to develop lasting happiness and resilience in their own lives, and in turn, their families, friends, workplaces and communities.  It supports learning across a range of themes, from self-awareness and empowerment, to relationship building, community action and life-long learning & growth.   It makes the tools and habits of a flourishing life, easily accessible to people of all ages, backgrounds and dreams.

The Happiness Habit Programme is a 10 week learning course, based on the best of positive psychology, appreciative inquiry, solutions focus, sustainable leadership and participatory development, and translates these into simple changes people can make that have a profound and lasting impact on their lives.  The first course will be offered when the first 20 bookings have been made.  For more information and bookings email info@happycity.org.uk
