Summary
Listen to episode 732 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Happiness that Cures Anxiety & Fear. Edited and adapted from How to Stay Well by Christian D. Larson.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: True happiness enjoys all things deeply, but serenely. And you can always know when you have had such happiness, because it makes your countenance radiant with a restful beauty.
To gain real happiness, the first essential is to train yourself to think constantly of the great value of such happiness — especially with regard to its health producing power. Such thinking will tend to produce a subconscious desire for happiness, and what the subconscious begins to desire it also begins to create.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the inspirational living podcast. |
| 0:16.0 | Today's reading was edited and adapted from How to Stay Well by Christian D. Larson, published in 1912. |
| 0:29.6 | Health is harmony, disease is discord. The more perfect the harmony in the human body, the better the health. |
| 0:42.3 | And happiness invariably produces harmony. |
| 0:46.3 | When the forces and elements of mind and body work together in harmony, healthy conditions are naturally produced. There can be no discord when |
| 0:59.2 | harmony is full and complete. There can be no darkness when the light is sufficiently strong. |
| 1:07.7 | The happier you are, the less energy you waste, because added happiness means added harmony, |
| 1:15.4 | and the body wastes no energy while it continues in perfect harmony. |
| 1:21.6 | The less energy you waste, the more vitality you will possess, and the greater your supply of vital energy, |
| 1:32.0 | the less liable you are to sickness. Nourish your mind with happiness as you nourish your body |
| 1:39.7 | with food, and the ills of mind will never gain a foothold in your life, even for a moment. |
| 1:47.0 | You will be mentally vigorous and strong every day, even if you should live as long upon |
| 1:55.0 | earth as those worthy examples of ancient days. The forces of growth, recuperation and reconstruction, are all given a healthy |
| 2:06.6 | stimulus by happiness. No matter how tired out your body may be, it will recuperate in a very |
| 2:14.6 | short time if you are thoroughly happy. However, this the average person |
| 2:22.0 | fails to do. When they feel tired, they permit themselves also to feel downcast, weary and |
| 2:30.5 | depressed, and therefore instead of helping nature to restore normal conditions, they place |
| 2:37.6 | every possible obstacle in her way. When the body is tired from physical burdens, they |
| 2:45.0 | give it a mental burden instead, and are blind enough to think that they are giving their body a rest. |
| 2:52.6 | Mental burdens exhaust more vital energy than the hardest kind of physical work. |
| 2:59.6 | And mental burdens are always useless, but they can be removed completely by the power of happiness. Keep in mind that there is happiness |
| 3:10.3 | that is genuine and happiness that is counterfeit. The former produces harmony, health |
