The Happiness Show

Posted by Jerry Lopper Nov 7, 2007

While researching happiness benefits for an article, I came across a web site holding over one hundred and thirty videos, all happiness related. A cable channel in White Plains, New York carried The Happiness Show, claimed to be the only TV show devoted to the theme of happiness. The show was created and produced by George Ortega, and was first aired in 2003.

The Happiness Show was picked up by cable TV stations in several other cities and ran until April, 2006. The web site by the same name provides all one hundred thirty shows free of charge in streaming audio and video. Each show is about 28 minutes long.

The web site lists several benefits of happiness and references reputable positive psychology studies as the basis for its shows.

Intriguing titles include:

Happiness and Poverty

Happiness Promotion: Key to a Happier World

In addition to the videos, the site contains interesting facts about worldwide happiness, references to books and scholarly papers on happiness, and information about happiness clubs. Stop by for a few minutes of happiness advice.
