What truly makes us happy? Is it having more money, more possessions, and more experiences? Or could it actually be found in having less? Studies suggest that beyond a certain income level, additional wealth contributes very little to overall happiness. In fact, psychologists have found that people who simplify their lives often report lower stress levels and higher satisfaction. Yet we live in a consumer-driven society that constantly pushes us to want more, buy more, and do more. Can we really resist that pressure and still feel like we’re living a full life?_x000D_

In this discussion, hosted by David, a chief psychological counsellor, we’ll explore both philosophical and psychological perspectives on what we actually need to be happy—and how much of it is truly necessary. We’ll reflect on whether cutting back on certain things could actually help us gain more joy, peace, and meaning. Happiness looks different for everyone, but the collective question remains: in a world built on the motivation of “more,” can we find the courage to embrace “less” and discover a deeper form of happiness in the process?_x000D_

什么才是真正让人快乐的东西?是更多的钱、更多的物质和更多的经历吗?还是说,其实“少一点”反而更幸福?研究发现,超过一定收入之后,财富的增加对整体幸福感的提升几乎没啥帮助。反而有心理学家指出,过得更简单的人往往压力更小,满足感更高。可现实是,我们生活在一个被消费主义主导的社会里,每天都在被“买更多、做更多、想要更多”的声音轰炸。那我们到底能不能扛住这种压力,还依然觉得自己活得充实?_x000D_

在这场由 David 主持的讨论中(他本身是首席心理咨询师),我们会从哲学和心理学的角度出发,一起聊聊“幸福”到底需要什么,以及我们到底需要多少。我们会反思:是不是少掉一些东西,反而能收获更多的快乐、平静和意义。每个人的幸福都不一样,但有个共同的问题依然存在:在一个以“更多”为动力的世界里,我们能不能有勇气去拥抱“更少”,并在这个过程中找到更深层次的幸福?
