Spring cleaning. It's not just for the closet anymore. We take organization digital on this episode of Live Happy Now.

The ancient Greeks defined happiness as the joy you feel moving towards your potential.

To think about positive psychology, it's a science. And it's actually younger than the Internet, believe it or not.

The reality is that social connection is in the research the greatest predictor we have of long-term happiness.

You have some factors in your control.

They can promote the health and resilience and growth of your absolutely most important asset, which is your brain.

And so it all comes down to understanding ourselves. There's a way for all of us to succeed, but it might take different things.

We're all looking for the same thing, and that's a way to bring a little bit more joy to our day.

Join us as we look at the many different paths that lead us to that happy place. This is Live Happy Now. Hello and greetings and welcome to another edition of the Live Happy Now podcast. I'm your host, J.R. Houston. Thrill, as always to be here and extremely excited that wherever you are in the world, however you may be listening, you are making us a part of your day. We're also excited that more of you are picking up copies of

Live Happy magazine. It's available wherever fine magazines are sold. It's also available in the

Digital Edition. You can get it in the Google Play or the Apple Store and get all of the special

features that come with the Digital Edition. And we're talking digital things today. It's

specifically electronics and the hardware and how it can really pile up with things getting obsolete faster and faster.

We're always searching for the new thing, but we're often not getting rid of the old thing.

And that's why we brought in Amy Blanksin. Now, she is widely recognized as a leading expert on the connection between positive

psychology and technology. In fact, she's so widely recognized that two presidents have recognized her.

George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton thought enough of her to name her a point of light, and we're

hoping she can shed some light on cleaning up our own electronic footprint.

Well, Amy, a couple of things before we really dive into the meat of what we're going to

discuss. We're happy to have you here at Live Happy. We love your brother, Sean Acorn, whose name I'm

totally dropping here just for fun and reference. And your sister-in-law, Michelle Galen,

look at that. We're going to have to clean up all these names. But we're so excited to have you here. And your sister-in-law, Michelle Galen, look at that.
