Sustainable happiness looks at the relationship between individual well-being and the well-being of other people and the environment. This means that we are not solely looking at an individual\u2019s happiness and well-being in isolation from how the choices they make impact other people and the natural environment.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Sustainable happiness is not a trend or a singular path, but rather an approach that emphasises\u00a0conscientious decision-making, and how that affects your environment. Sustainable happiness encourages thoughtfulness and an appreciation of your role in this wonderful ecosystem of relationships between yourself, your immediate surroundings, your society, and Nature.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-content\"><div class=\"dc_faq\" id=\"whats-this-journal-im-hearing-about\"><div class=\"dc_faq-title\"><button>What's this journal I'm hearing about?<\/button><\/div><div class=\"dc_faq-body\">\n<p>Created by\u00a0Dr. Catherine O&#8217;Brien and\u00a0Sean O\u2019Brien Murray, this unique journal asks you 100 questions (one question per day), and is meant to be a guide to help you rediscover the interrelationship between yourself, others, and with Nature. The journal is a tool, and is carefully designed to gently encourage thought and strengthen your connection with your environment.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more, read <a href=\"https:\/\/www-chris.dawsoncollege.qc.ca\/news\/dnews\/100-day-sustainable-happiness-semester-journal-new-tool-for-teachers-and-students\/\">100-Day Sustainable Happiness Semester Journal<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-content\"><div class=\"dc_faq\" id=\"what-sort-of-events-are-there-who-is-it-for\"><div class=\"dc_faq-title\"><button>What sort of events are there?

You cannot have peace without sustainability, and you cannot have sustainability without peace. By protecting our resources, we are prioritising others. It is through nurturing our environment and our societies, we can better share resources and begin to remove the obstacles of injustice, thus building a more peaceful, sustainable, and just way of life.<\/p>\n<p>For more, read <a href=\"https:\/\/www-chris.dawsoncollege.qc.ca\/news\/dnews\/making-peace-with-the-planet-sustainability-action-and-peace\/\">Making Peace With the Planet<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-content\"><div class=\"dc_faq\" id=\"for-students\"><div class=\"dc_faq-title\"><button>For Students<\/button><\/div><div class=\"dc_faq-body\">\n<p>Sustainable Happiness is pleased to offer a series of workshops and certifications, including a facilitator trainer.
