Post-industrial society has made human beings masters of unhappiness. We have too much stress, too much boring work, too little play, and too little real nourishment, both physical and mental. What a mess! Drawing upon the contemporary science of happiness, philosophical work on well-being, and ideas from the burgeoning ancestral health movement, I argue that we can get out of the mess by enjoining sound empirical psychology alongside ancestral wisdom. Abstracts and information about the Ancestral Health Symposium can be found at www.ancestralhealth.org/ahs14-program.
