About this episode
"Don't worry, be happy", "focus on the important things", "smile more". We've all heard these platitudes, and we've all been annoyed by them.

Anders sits down with Luke Naylor-Perrott to discuss how we can stop this hijacking, translating cutting-edge neuroscience into day-to-day tips.
