There is A LOT of complicated advice out there (including on this podcast) focused on how to improve our well-being. In this episode, @RickHanson and I simplify the lessons we’ve learned from over 100 experts and 300 episodes. We explore the importance of individual context, focusing on what we can change even among difficult circumstances, the power of acceptance, influencing our attention, taking care of the body, social connection, and how we can identify, accept, and manage our unique needs.

Key Topics:
0:00 Introduction, and a disclaimer about generalizations
5:40 The belief that things can get better
14:25 How acceptance supports agency
24:05 Being thoughtful about what we consume, and where we place our attention
