  • Summary

  • Research shows that Americans invest more time, money and emotional energy into the ‘pursuit of happiness’ than any other nation, but they’re sliding down the global happiness scale. Are these two things linked? We ask British author living in LA, Ruth Whipmann why she thinks they are, and what she’s discovered really DOES make us happy.

    And ex-boy-band member Harry Judd (from McFly) tells us how exercise helped relieve his battle with anxiety and OCD and why he thinks more people need to understand the link between exercise and happiness.
