A presentation for teachers on a holistic education approach, grounded in Indigenous wisdom, Eastern philosophy, and contemporary happiness research, alongside a practical toolkit that helps educators design curricula that nurtures the whole person—emotional, cognitive, physical, spiritual, and ecological well-being of students and teachers alike. This toolkit invites a transformative question: What if we could teach a whole new generation to take responsibility for their own happiness—without relying on external conditions or believing they can only be happy when life goes their way? Imagine teaching children from a very young age that “You’re in Charge of Your Happy!”—cultivating inner agency, resilience, and lifelong well-being.
