How do we become happier in our lives? The answer: pursue "pleasure", well according to Epicurus anyway. I share some personal thoughts gathered from my own reading of Epicurus as well as research from the work of our authors at Empirics. For more knowledge visit www.empirics.asia. Connect with me on Instagram @melvin.poh
Epicurus strongly believed that a philosophical pursuit of pleasure, distinct from hedonism will lead us to a much happier life. Epicurus' beliefs culminated into the influential philosophy of Epicureanism.
(Note: I've received some comments from some of you about the horizontal orientation of my videos. My sincerest apologies, I've only recently moved onto YouTube from Instagram (my main platform). I have not yet procured a studio set-up yet, although it is something I am working on. For now, I am limited to shooting from my phone however, rest be sure, in doing so I am providing you my most raw, personal and unedited thoughts. I appreciate your support and patience in the mean time.)
