Find Your Fulfillment

A 5-Day Expert-Led Transformation, powered by the Science of Happiness

Designed by scientists from the Happiness Foundation

Over 5 days on the Greek island of Crete, you’ll join a cohort of fellow global leaders to work with world-class experts in the science of happiness to break out of old thought patterns, find renewed clarity and reset your mind & body.

The science-based programme covers four elements of a happy life.

The Experts

 
The path of becoming happier and more grateful could alone give people the bandwidth to try and solve more structural changes too.
— Laurie Santos, Director of Yale Comparative Cognition Lab
Happiness means wellbeing. Wellbeing is essentially a bedrock of having the basics of what you need, so that even on bad days, you are okay.
— Robert Waldinger, Director of Harvard Grant Study
Instead of trying to light up individually and randomly in the dark, we need to find a way of lighting up together.
— Shawn Achor, author of "The Happiness Advantage"
Human beings seek out for the good life PERMA: positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning and accomplishment. People value these elements differently, so there is no one formula for happiness.
— Martin Seligman, pioneer of the field of Positive Psychology
