Sep 12 @ 18:00 – 20:00

“Hvað skiptir okkur raunverulega máli?” er einstakt og hvetjandi 8 vikna námskeið þar sem við skoðum hvað það þýðir að lifa hamingjusömu og innihaldsríku lífi. Námskeiðið byggir á nýjustu rannsóknum á hamingju og er ætlað öllum þeim sem hafa áhuga á að auka eigin hamingju og byggja upp jákvæðara og betra samfélag. Í hvert skipti er unnið með eitt þema sem byggir á einni spurningu, svo sem: Hvað virkilega skiptir okkur máli? Hvað gerir okkur hamingjusöm? og: Hvernig eigum við að koma fram við aðra?

// The Action for Happiness course is a unique and inspiring 8-week course to explore what matters for a happy and meaningful life. The course is based on the latest scientific evidence and is intended for people of all backgrounds, particularly those who would like to see a more positive and caring society. Each session has a theme, based on a ‘big question’, such as: What really matters in life? What actually makes us happy? And: How should we treat others?
