If life feels hard and joy is difficult to find, get answers at The Art & Science of Getting Happier: Build the Life You Want on Tuesdays, Jan. 27 through Feb. 17 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in The Studio.

Led by psychologist Lori Lilly, this course is designed to provide direction on a journey toward living with a greater sense of happiness and a deeper sense of wisdom. Students will learn more about emotions to develop tools of self-management and emotional regulation and a positive state of mind.

While there is no one answer for everyone, students will learn practical, research-based practices that meet them where they are and help build a daily practice of happiness.
