Is eudaimonic happiness the best kind of happiness?
I do think eudaimonic happiness is definitely the best happiness, though some hedonic happiness has its place. This has also the benefit of leading to a better spiritual life in the next life as well as this one.
- There are two types of happiness, hedonic and eudaimonic.
- While both support life satisfaction, research shows they serve unique purposes and are expressed in different brain regions.
- Eudaimonic happiness also appears to be more sustainable and seems to cultivate certain health benefits.
