The third full week in January is Hunt for Happiness Week. Here are some ideas on how to observe it and start your New Year happy!

What is “Hunt for Happiness”?

In 2001, the Society of Happy People founded Hunt for Happiness Week to promote the pursuit of happiness across the country.

During the third week in January, Hunt For Happiness Week encourages us to take a closer look at what we define as happiness and what it takes to achieve it.

How to Observe “Hunt for Happiness Week”

We control our own happiness. Identify what makes you happy and prioritize it. Identify your favorite activities and pursue them more often.
