7 happiness habits of RETIREMENT!

Happiness in retirement doesn’t always arrive automatically. Sometimes, it begins with the small things we choose to do every day.

In Part 2 of my September series, we’re talking about **The Happiness Habit**—seven simple habits that can give your days more structure, connection, purpose and joy. These aren’t dramatic life changes. They’re small, realistic things you can begin doing today—even if retirement hasn’t felt quite as happy or fulfilling as you expected.

In this video, we’ll explore seven happiness habits:

00:00 – Introduction

03:13 – 1. Give the day a beginning

05:02 – 2. Put one thing on the calendar to look forward to

06:18 – 3. Move your body to change the channel

07:42 – 4. Notice one good thing while it’s happening

09:38 – 5. Make one small human connection

11:27 – 6. Do one thing that makes you feel useful

12:58 – 7. End the day positively

You don’t need to completely reinvent your life. Choose just one habit and begin there. Because happiness isn’t always something we find—it’s often something we practice.
