It's natural to want to run away from difficult emotions such as grief, anger and fear. But what happens when these feelings catch up with us? This week, in the second installment of our Happiness 2.0 series, psychologist Todd Kashdan looks at the relationship between distress and happiness, and how to keep difficult emotions from sabotaging our wellbeing.
Did you catch the first episode in our series on happiness? You can find last week's conversation on how to build a lasting sense of contentment here. And if you enjoy the show and would like to help us make more episodes of Hidden Brain, please consider supporting our work. Thanks!
