Make Life Happier – with Dr Mark Williamson (community gathering)
20 April @ 19:00 - 20:00
How can we really make life happier?
We all want the people we love to be happy – and most of us long to feel more at peace with ourselves. But how can we do this reliably in our busy lives and in an uncertain world?
At this special event, Dr Mark Williamson, Director of Action for will share key insights from his forthcoming book Make Life Happier. Drawing on fifteen years of working closely with leading experts in wellbeing, Mark will offer simple, proven ways to make life happier for yourself, your loved ones and the wider world. The event will be hosted by the psychologist, broadcaster & writer Dr Sian Williams.
Mark doesn’t claim to be a guru. He’s a practical ‘happiness engineer’ who has road-tested these ideas in real life with thousands of people – and in his own journey from burnout to purpose. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all formula, Mark will explain how you can run your own ‘happiness experiments’ and discover what works best for you – whether that’s quieting your inner critic, building healthier habits, becoming a better listener or contributing to your community.
Make Life Happier is more than a guide to feeling better – it’s an invitation to join a growing movement of people choosing to live differently. Because lasting happiness comes not just from caring for ourselves, but from caring for each other. Whatever your situation, you can do something – and you can make a start now.
The event will take place on Zoom at 7pm London time .
