Field of Challenge: Project HeHa has developed a fundamental theory behind what ‘super happiness’ is made of:
5+1+Others
- 5: Five core areas = Health, Family, Work, Friends and Leisure
- 1: One Mindset = Positive Thinking, Mindfulness, The “Helicopter View”
- Others: These are the ideas and habits out there that are waiting for you to co-create with us
We want to hear your ideas on how to encourage happiness and wellbeing within these core areas.
About the Award: The Super Happiness Challenge is one of the first initiatives of Project HeHa – a worldwide movement to help people achieve super happiness, and co-create a happier world. Although we see technology continually advancing and our quality of life steadily improving, our collective level of happiness has not kept up with its potential growth. This unmet need for happiness is what we are actively trying to address.
