James returns to remind all of us that joy is always close at hand. A beautiful message wrapped in his soothing voice. Enjoy!

Take 2 minutes - less, even - and follow along with James Adams in another of his popular Meditation Minutes, here on The Art 2 Aging.

Become still. Become calm…

Happiness.

We talk about it often on The Art 2 Aging for a number of pretty obvious reasons.

First, life is a lot easier and more fun when we’re happy, especially as we grow older.

Second, happiness doesn’t fall from the heavens. We have to create it within ourselves. Especially as we grow older.

And third, creating our own happiness can be difficult. It doesn’t come easily in the 21st century.

That’s why this week’s guest is unique. Dana Hilmer is a trained positive psychologist, executive coach and mentor.

She’s the founder of Wiser and Free, designed to help people live lives with happiness, purpose, and freedom.

But she’s way more than that.

She’s one of those rare human beings who walks her talk. Even when it’s painful to do so.

What makes this interview so special is how Dana shares honestly and openly her own issues and how she still manages to create happiness in her daily existence.

I will guarantee that you cannot help but be moved by her words.

Here is a link to Dana’s free workbook with content and resources to help anyone become happier.
