Hello and welcome back to a new series of Happy Place. I know we haven't really been away

at all but I was very eager to chat to loads more genius, reflective, warm-hearted people.

So here we are again. Today we're meeting a University of Cambridge researcher, No Less.

It's Dr. Olivia Reams.

The thing to remember is, you know when we're looking at just common everyday moods

and people wanting to overcome these moods and wanting to become more confident

or more extroverted, whatever that may be, it is important to remember that these aspects

are not something you're born with. Nobody's born charming, nobody's born confident.

It's something that you can develop, it's a skill that you can develop with practice

and I think that's really helpful.

Olivia is a life coach and a mental health researcher at the University of Cambridge.

She spent the last 10 years uncovering the secrets to reducing everyday panic, stress and anxiety.

Now she's compiled everything she's learned about the common moods that can hold us all back into a book.

It's called the Instant Moode Fix and I'm so proud to say it's published by Happy Place Books.

How are you feeling today? Have a think about it. How are you really feeling?

If the answer is a bit flat, a bit meh, I promise you are absolutely not alone.

January can feel a bit difficult after the high energy of the festive period, can't it?

It's so normal to feel lacking in motivation and enthusiasm at this time of year.

So we've curated the Happy Habits collection on the Happy Place app to help you feel happier and more inspired.

There are new practices dropping every day this January and they're all short and easy to fit into your day.

There's meditation to start combating the January Blues and they're tapping sessions to help you manifest the life you want this year to.
