Excerpt from Tips, Tools, and Anecdotes to Help during a Pandemic (Charnas)


5. TOUGH TIMES

 

Running a therapy group on happiness is one of my favorite job responsibilities. There’s a huge industry focused on happiness. While doing research for the group, I learned that optimism boosts happiness, so we discuss this concept in the group.
