A far better future is within our reach if we act now.
Happiness Scale from - 10 to + 10
Today people live most of their lives at far from optimal levels of joy.
The Smart Way should be available to everyone
It's practical, effective, and cost-effective.
We can't solve today's problems with old thinking
Scientific evidence points to a far easier way to solve problems.
Current engagement techniques aim at the wrong target
It can all be so much easier than we've been making it.
When you aim at the right target, it's easy to hit your goals.


Happiness 1st Institute provides education and training designed to increase human thriving and reduce suffering. Our programs address the root cause of these important areas of life:

  • Physical Health
  • Mental Health
  • Relationships
  • Behavior
  • Success

Based on decades of research, we have designed our programs to treat the root cause--not just symptoms.

If a program or treatment requires repeated use or application over time in order to work, it is treating symptoms. Only root cause solutions offer permanent relief without negative side effects.

Our goal is to provide the information in such a way that once a customer has learned the skills that lead to thriving they will not need our services again but they will refer others to us because they are pleased with the results. Our Premier Programs have a money back guarantee.

Because what we do is so important to humanity, we partner with a non-profit (Achieve Affinity) to bring this information to those who could not otherwise afford it.

Individuals and organizations benefit greatly from our programs.

  • Increase Employee Engagement
