Choose Happiness | Sunday 6 December | 10am-1pm

Half-Day Retreat with Howard Ho
Saturday 6th December 10am - 1pm

The Happiness Paradox: Why do we struggle to find it?

You’ve checked all the boxes: a better job, more stability, and the perfect lifestyle—yet deep down, a sense of fulfillment remains mysteriously out of reach. Why does the harder we work to be happy, the more elusive it becomes? This is the "Happiness Paradox," a hidden pattern that traps most of us in a cycle of endless pursuit.

Join this retreat to uncover the overlooked root cause of this struggle and discover the shift in perspective that changes everything. Are you ready to stop chasing and start living? The answer might be closer—and simpler—than you think.
