About this episode

Barbara Edelson Peterson, author of Kvell: A Word You Should Know, bridges the gap between clinical psychology and Jewish tradition to show how celebrating others—even a grumpy teenager—activates the reward circuits in our brains. What does it take to move from an obsession with victimhood to a practice of authentic, spontaneous joy? Listen and find out.
