b'Science says that only 10% of our happiness comes from our external circumstances\\u2014our job and income, relationship status, health and weight, age, and where we live. That means that our happiness is largely up to us and the choices we make, the things we do, and the thoughts we think.\\xa0\\xa0\\nIn this mini-episode, Dhru speaks with Robert Mack and Dr. Laurie Santos about why true happiness is a state of being, and not dependent on external factors, and simple actions you can take today to get on a path to happiness.\\xa0\\nRobert Mack is an ivy-league-educated Celebrity Happiness Coach, Positive Psychology Expert, Published Author of Happiness from the Inside Out, and TV Host/Personality for OWN and E!

I\\u2019m a huge fan of morning routines, because I think they can transform your ability to focus, sleep well, and get the most out of your day, especially in this busy, modern world.\\xa0\\nWhat I\\u2019ve found is that the best way to begin your day is to feed your body the right information or the right nutrients. That\\u2019s why Dr. Mark Hyman and I created the Pegan Shake. It\\u2019s a nutritionally packed morning blend designed to support healthy blood sugar, energy, and brain power.\\xa0\\xa0\\nIt contains some of my most favorite brain boosting foods like MCT and avocado. It also features acacia fiber for healthy gut function and collagen, pumpkin, and pea protein to support muscle synthesis. Check it out at getfarmacy.com/peganshake.\\n\\n Hosted on Acast.
