Psychology in the Pub: The Truth About Happiness

Sitting back and scrolling social media, it seems like everyone is living a full, successful, productive, and most importantly, happy life. However, what if this is painting an overly positive picture? What if, in truth, everyone is just like you, struggling to get the groceries in the car with a runaway trolly, drowning in a sea of unread emails, constantly losing their phone, and trying to battle a range of challenging emotions. Come along to “The Truth about Happiness” to learn how humans really experience emotions, as well as how to stop playing the emotional tug-of-war. There will be plenty of opportunity for questions and general discussion, as well as actionable tips for managing difficult emotions! This talk is part of a series of “Psychology in the Pub” presentations, where psychologists present on a range of interesting and engaging topics related to mental health and psychological issues. Emma and Jess look forward to welcoming you to a fun and relaxing afternoon of learning.
