Science-Based Podcasts About Happiness and Well-Being

UC Berkeley's Greater Good Science Center offers two research-based podcasts about living a happier, more meaningful life. 'The Science of Happiness' is hosted by psychologist Dacher Keltner and teaches practical strategies you can use today to feel better. 'Happiness Break' offers short episodes with compassion and stress relief practices.

Episodes cover everything from managing stress to developing compassion for others. You can listen on any podcast app like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or Google Podcasts. The content is free and designed to help anyone create more happiness and meaning in their daily life through proven techniques.
