A community about happy living. Thoughts and praxis about long-term wellbeing, contentment, and personal fulfillment.

A place to post profound, preferably long-form thoughts and discussions about such concepts which might not easily fit in other communities.

Probably will remain just a community for the admin to post stuff they found interesting, but feel free to post some stuff you find that matches or start discussions.

The books seems interesting, thanks for sharing

Edit: watched it, seems to be Korean or American. As a European, while the pressure for productivity is still there, being able to enjoy your life, including days off and vacation, is still a thing.

The point is that even many Europeans use vacation just to be more productive later instead of just enjoying life. It's a corruption of leisure time.

If I have some time, I'll try to look up some stats on that. From anecdotal evidence around me, once people reach 30-35, they start considering work as just work, and focus their priorities to family and private time.

In the Netherlands for instance it's quite usual for fathers to switch to 4 days a week once they have children.
