About Happiness
About happiness
Most of what we hear about happiness points us in the wrong direction. Vacations, purchases, parties, promotions — all of them can bring a spark of “happy,” but the spark fades quickly.
Happiness Quarterly was created to offer something deeper. We draw the line between happy — quick and fleeting — and happ(i)ness — steady, deep, and worth building your life around.
Our Philosophy
Happ(i)ness grows from four essential sources: physical health, mental health, relationships, and doing good. Every issue explores these through stories, skills, and examples you can put into action right away.Mission

Happ(i)ness doesn’t just appear.
It grows from four core sources
-
Physical Health
A strong body is the starting point for a strong life. When you ignore your health, happ(i)ness slips away. When you move, eat well, rest deeply, and care for yourself, you create the energy and resilience to enjoy life more fully.
-
Mental Health
Your mind is where happ(i)ness is built or broken. Stress, distraction, and clutter pull you off course. Clarity, learning, and peace bring you back.
-
Relationships
We are wired for connection. Without meaningful relationships, happ(i)ness fades, no matter how much success or comfort you find. With them, even ordinary days become richer and more grounded.
-
Doing Good in the World
The deepest form of happ(i)ness comes when life isn’t only about you. When you give your time, talent, or kindness, you create ripples that reach far beyond what you can see.
