We Need Shared Happiness More Than Ever
Life today feels heavier than ever. Between long work hours, endless notifications, and the constant pressure to stay connected, many of us feel drained. According to the World Health Organization, depression and anxiety costs the global economy more than $1 trillion every year. Personal toll is even greater: loneliness, burnout, and broken connections.
Over the years, we’ve turned to self-care wellness apps, yoga and meditation sessions, nutrition coaches, and lifestyle podcasts for relief. Apps had explosive growth in recent years, but now their subscriptions are declining. Most people drop off after a few weeks or months. They work for a while, but the effect often fades. Apps are passive. What’s missing is something deeper — human connections and community.
Real happiness doesn’t grow in isolation; it multiplies when it’s shared across communities. That’s exactly why the Happiness Movement concept becomes relevant for communities and people across the world to gather together for joy.
The movement is very much aligned with the mission of Mind Technologies Inc., a happiness venture that was founded in 2022. The company founded the Happily-Club in December 2024, as a convenient on-line venue for followers of the Happiness Movement across the world to gather together.
Earlier the company was testing ideas for forming in-person clubs for people to practice happiness building activities in groups. But local, in-person clubs lacked the power of bringing together people across different communities and cultures, world-wide. This led to the formation of the Happily-Club as a word-wide on-line venue, with local in-person chapters.
On-line meeting venues have become popular, particularly since the Covid-19 pandemic, as natural ways of getting together, for groups and communities.
Why Clubs Work Better Than Going Solo
Ever noticed how laughing with friends feels better than laughing alone at a meme? That’s science in action.
Psychologists say happiness is contagious. When one person smiles, others mirror it — our brains are wired that way through mirror neurons. On top of that, group support makes habits easier to stick with.
Research highlights that:
People stay more consistent with routines when they’re part of a group.
Social support can cut stress and anxiety levels significantly.
Shared rituals like gratitude circles or laughter therapy build long-term optimism.
The Happily-Club takes these findings and turns them into daily practice, helping joy being just a “momentary feeling” to a “lifestyle.”
What Exactly is the Happily-Club?
At its simplest, the Happily-Club is a group of people who intentionally practice routines that boost well-being together.
Instead of going through meditation or other wellness apps alone, or trying to force fitness habits, members engage in activities, together in a naturally engaging venue.
Think of it as a “healthy minds club” — a space where joy, positivity, and connection are just as important as physical health.
