International Day of Happiness 2021
Every year UN publish a World Happiness Report including among many things a global survey measuring subjective well-being among countries, mainly using the Gallup World Poll which measures life evaluation and positive/negative emotions. For many years the Nordic countries have been in the top in this ranking and this is also true this year. Below picture shows the top 20 countries in Ranking of Happiness 2018-2020:
To learn more about happiness in the Nordic countries, you can read my short summary of the book "The little book of Lykke (Happiness)" written by Meik Wiking. From this book we learn that the Nordic societies have six things in common that impacts happiness:
Togetherness, Money, Health, Freedom, Trust, Kindness.
You can find many sites that help you in order to learn about how to become more happy. One of them is Action for Happiness where you among many things can find coming Events and inspiring YouTube webcasts...
