Week 7: Retreat

Provocation

In order to understand the world, one has to turn away from it on occasion.

Albert Camus

The three grand essentials of happiness are: Something to do, someone to love, and something to hope for.

Alexander Chalmers

Points for discussion/reflection

•   Happiness is an industry and an illusion. Discuss.

 

•   What are your ‘Grand Essentials of Happiness’?

 

•   We cannot know happiness as it is happening, only after.

 

•   Happiness cannot be planned or predicted.

 

Task

On this long weekend I hope you will find the time to unplug, switch off, tune out and take a quiet moment in nature to meditate, to reflect. If you like you can journal your reflections. Ask yourself, What does happiness mean to me? Create a happiness plan.
