大家好，欢迎回到英语对话播客。

我是麦克，我是艾玛。今天我们要深入探讨一个每个人或多或少都会思考的话题：追求幸福。

podcast I am

Mike and I'm Emma today we're diving

into a topic that everyone thinks about

是的，幸福，这是我们所有人想要的东西，但有时它似乎如此神秘。艾玛，你认为幸福是目标还是过程？

of

Happiness yes happiness it's something

we all want but it feels like such a

mystery sometimes Emma what do you think

麦克，这是一个很好的问题。我认为两者都有一些。

question Mike I think it's a bit of both

有些人认为幸福是一种目的地，是他们努力追求的东西。

而另一些人则认为，重要的是享受过程和沿途的小美好。

for others it's about enjoying the

绝对的。幸福这个概念本身就非常主观，对吧？让一个人感到幸福的事情，可能对另一个人并不起作用。

way

absolutely the idea of Happiness can be

so subjective right what makes one

person happy might not work for someone

没错。所以今天我们要讨论幸福的含义，人们如何追求它，以及追求本身是否可能是问题的一部分。

talk about what happiness means how

让我们从定义幸福开始吧，艾玛，你如何定义它？嗯，这有点难，因为幸福对每个人来说都不同。

itself might be part of the problem

let's start by defining happiness Emma

how would you define it well that's a

tough one because happiness is different

对一些人来说，可能意味着经济上的保障，对另一些人来说，可能意味着与亲人共度时光，实现个人目标，甚至只是感到满足。

Financial Security for others it could

be spending time with with loved ones

achieving personal goals or even just

满足。当我们研究幸福时，心理学家通常将其分为两部分：享乐性幸福和eudaimonic幸福。

content right and when you look at

research psychologists often break

happiness down into two parts adonic

happiness and udam monic

哦，有意思。你能再详细解释一下吗？当然，享乐性幸福是关于快乐和享受，当我们吃我们最喜欢的食物、去度假或买新东西时，我们感受到的就是这种幸福。

those a bit more sure honic happiness is

all about pleasure and enjoyment it's

the happiness we feel when we eat our

而eudaimonic幸福则更深层次，它来自于一种目标感或成就感，比如当我们完成有意义的事情或帮助他人时。

something new your dionic happiness on

the other hand is deeper it comes from a

sense of purpose or fulfillment like

所以一种是即时满足，而另一种是更长期的满足感。

help others so one is about instant

gratification and the other is more

没错。这两者之间的平衡，往往决定了我们整体的幸福感。现在，这里有一个有趣的问题：追求幸福本身会让我们感到幸福吗？

satisfaction exactly and the balance

between these two can often determine

how happy we feel overall now here's an

interesting question does the actual

Pursuit of Happiness make us happy

或者有时反而会让我们更焦虑？这是一个好问题。 “追求幸福”这个词本身就暗示着幸福是我们必须追逐的东西，好像它总是遥不可及。

stressed that's a good point the phrase

Pursuit of Happiness almost implies that

happiness is something we have to chase

after like it's always Out Of

Reach yes and that's why some people end

是的，这就是为什么有些人会感到沮丧，他们将幸福设定为最终目标，比如“当我升职的时候我就会幸福”，或者“当我买房的时候我就会幸福”。

as this end goal I'll be happy when I

get that promotion or I'll be happy when

I buy a house but once they achieve it

但一旦他们实现目标，这种感觉往往不会持续太久。

as they expected

没错，这被称为享乐适应。我们会很快适应新的成就或 possessions，然后又开始想要更多。

adapt to new achievements or possessions

quickly and then we're back to wanting

所以，仅仅关注金钱或地位等外部因素，往往不会带来长期的幸福。这让我们引申出一个关键点：内在幸福和外在幸福的区别。艾玛，你认为哪个更重要？

on external factors like money or status

often doesn't lead to long-term

happiness this leads us to a crucial

point the difference between internal

and external sources of Happiness Emma

what do you think is more important I

我认为内在幸福更可持续。如果我们过于依赖外部因素，比如财富或物质，我们可能会暂时感到快乐，但内在幸福，比如自我接纳和感恩，可以带来更持久的满足感。

sustainable if we rely too much on

external factors like wealth or material

things we might feel happy

temporarily but internal happiness like

self-acceptance and gratitude can bring

绝对的。有很多富人并不快乐，他们拥有所有物质条件，但内心却空虚。

fulfillment absolutely there are so many

examples of wealthy people who aren't

happy they have everything externally

but feel empty

inside yes and on the flip side you see

是的，另一方面，你也会看到一些一无所有的人，却似乎真正感到满足。这表明幸福不仅仅在于我们拥有什么，还在于我们如何看待我们所拥有的一切。

genuinely content it shows that

happiness isn't just about what we have

but how we perceive what we have that's

这是一个深刻的认识，我认为这也是为什么正念和感恩日记等练习变得越来越受欢迎。它们帮助我们专注于当下，并欣赏小事物。

why practices like mindfulness and

gratitude journaling have become popular

they help us focus on the present and

appreciate the small

没错。另一个影响幸福的关键因素是我们的关系。研究表明，良好的人际关系是幸福的最大预测因素之一。

exactly another key factor in happiness

is our

relationships studies consistently show

that strong social connections are one

of the biggest predictors of

Happiness yes and it makes sense humans

是的，这很有道理。人类是社会性动物，我们需要与家人、朋友甚至社区建立联系。

connection whether it's with family

friends or even our

communities right and it's not just

about having a lot of friends but having

而且，不仅仅是拥有很多朋友，而是拥有有意义的关系，那些你可以信任并支持你的人。

trust and who support you absolutely

绝对的。甚至有一个亲密的朋友，也能对你的整体幸福感产生重大影响。

significant difference in your overall

well-being

没错。随着社交媒体的兴起，很容易觉得我们有很多联系，但这些互动并不总是真正有意义。

media it's easy to feel like we have a

lot of connections but those

interactions aren't always

meaningful yes virtual connections can

是的，虚拟连接可以帮助我们保持联系，但它们并不总是能提供与面对面互动相同程度的情感支持。

don't always provide the same level of

emotional support as face-to-face

没错，重要的是要培养那些更深层次的关系，即使只有几个。幸福的另一个方面，我们不能忽视的是拥有目标感。麦克，你认为拥有明确的目标能让人更快乐吗？

nurture those deeper relationships even

if it's just a few another aspect of

happiness we can't ignore is having a

sense of purpose Mike do you think

having a clear purpose can make people

happier definitely when we have a

当然。当我们有目标时，我们会更有动力和驱动力，它会给我们一个起床的理由，即使事情变得艰难，也能坚持下去。

driven it gives us a reason to wake up

in the morning and keeps us going even

when things get tough yes and purpose

是的，而且目标不一定是宏大的，它可以像做一个好父母、帮助他人或追求一项爱好一样简单。

could be as simple as being a good

parent helping others or pursuing a

passion

没错，关键是找到能赋予你生活意义的事情，无论它看起来多么大或小。当我们找到目标时，我们通常会感到一种深刻的成就感，这是幸福的重要组成部分。

something that gives your life meaning

no matter how big or small it seems and

when people find that purpose they often

feel a deep sense of

fulfillment which is a huge component of

没错。这不如不断追求快乐，而是创造一个有意义的生活。好了，让我们讲一些实用的建议，人们可以做些什么来增加幸福感。

constantly seeking pleasure and more

about creating a life that feels

meaningful all right let's get practical

what are some things people can do to

increase their happiness one of the

最简单的方法之一就是练习感恩，每天花几分钟写下你所感激的事情，可以改变你的心态。

gratitude just taking a few minutes each

day to write down what you're thankful

for can shift your mindset yes gratitude

是的，感恩很有力量。另一个建议是花时间亲近大自然，研究表明，即使是短时间的户外活动也能改善你的情绪。

in nature research shows that being

outdoors even for a short time can boost

绝对的。而且，别忘了锻炼。体育锻炼会释放内啡肽，这些是大脑中让你感觉良好的化学物质。

forget exercise physical activity

releases endorphins which are chemicals

in the brain that make you feel good

没错，即使是散步也能有所帮助。还有另一个重要的就是正念，专注于当下，可以帮助减轻压力，增加幸福感。

difference and another big one is

mindfulness focusing on the present

moment can help reduce stress and

是的，关键是完全沉浸在正在做的事情中，无论是吃饭、工作还是与亲人共度时光。我同意。最后，投资于人际关系至关重要，花时间与朋友和家人联系，可能是生活中最令人满足的部分。

Happiness yes it's about being fully

present in whatever you're doing whether

it's eating working or spending time

with loved ones I agree and lastly

investing in relationships is crucial

taking time to connect with friends and

family can be one of the most fulfilling

再好不过了，艾玛。建立和维持牢固的联系，真的可以改变一切。所以，总而言之，追求幸福不是追逐宏伟的目标或物质 possessions，而是发现小小的快乐，建立牢固的关系，并拥有目标感。

couldn't have said it better Emma

building and maintaining strong

connections can really be a

GameChanger so to sum it up the pursuit

of happiness isn't about chasing after

big goals or material

possessions it's about finding joy in

the little moments building strong

是的，而且也要善待自己。不快乐也没关系，幸福不是一种持续的状态，它来来去去。

purpose yes and it's also about being

kind to ourselves it's okay not to be

happy all the time happiness isn't a

没错，关键是拥抱这个过程，并在过程中找到满足感。 [音乐]

and goes exactly the key is to embrace

the journey and find contentment in the

[Music]

现在，让我们来学习一些有用的词汇。Contentment，意思是满足和安宁，对你所拥有的一切感到满意。

some really useful

vocabulary contentment meaning a state

of being satisfied and at peace with

例如，经过多年的追逐成功，她终于在简单的生活中找到了满足感，享受阅读和与家人共度时光等小事。Fulfillment，意思是实现目标或发挥潜力后获得的满足感和幸福感。

more example after years of chasing

success she finally found contentment in

a simple lifestyle enjoying the small

things like reading and spending time

with family fulfillment meaning a sense

of satisfaction or happiness from

例如，他完成了他的第一个马拉松后，感到一种深深的成就感，因为他知道自己努力工作以实现目标。Gratitude，意思是感恩和对你所拥有的一切的欣赏。

potential example he felt a deep sense

of fulfillment after finishing his first

marathon knowing he had worked hard to

reach reach his goal gratitude meaning

the feeling of being thankful and

showing appreciation for what you have

例如，每天练习感恩帮助她感到更快乐，因为她专注于生活中的积极方面。Mindfulness，意思是完全沉浸在当下，不受过去或未来的想法干扰。

helped her feel happier as she focused

on the positive aspects of her life

mindfulness meaning the practice of

being fully present and engaged in the

current moment without being distracted

例如，通过正念冥想，他学会专注于呼吸，放下担忧，这让他感到更放松。Honic，意思是与快乐或享受相关的，特别是通过身体或感官体验来寻求快乐。

example through mindfulness medit ation

he learned to focus on his breathing and

let go of his worries which made him

feel more relaxed honic meaning related

to pleasure or enjoyment especially

seeking pleasure through physical or

例如，许多人通过沉溺于他们最喜欢的食物来追求享乐性幸福，但这种快乐往往是短暂的。好了，今天的节目就到这里了。

honic Happiness by indulging in their

favorite foods but this pleasure is

often

Happiness yes happiness it's something

we all want but it feels like such a

is happiness a goal or a journey great

question Mike I think it's a bit of both

for some people happiness is a

destination something they work towards

for others it's about enjoying the

process and the small moments along the

way

absolutely the idea of Happiness can be

so subjective right what makes one

person happy might not work for someone

else exactly so today we're going to

talk about what happiness means how

people pursue it and whether the pursuit

itself might be part of the problem

let's start by defining happiness Emma

about long-term

Reach yes and that's why some people end

up feeling frustrated they set happiness

as this end goal I'll be happy when I

get that promotion or I'll be happy when

I buy a house but once they achieve it

the feeling often doesn't last as long

as they expected

right it's called the honic treadmill we

adapt to new achievements or possessions

quickly and then we're back to wanting

more so true that's why focusing solely

on external factors like money or status

often doesn't lead to long-term

happiness this leads us to a crucial

point the difference between internal

and external sources of Happiness Emma

what do you think is more important I

believe internal happiness is more

sustainable if we rely too much on

external factors like wealth or material

things we might feel happy

temporarily but internal happiness like

self-acceptance and gratitude can bring

more lasting

fulfillment absolutely there are so many

examples of wealthy people who aren't

people with very little who seem

genuinely content it shows that

but how we perceive what we have that's

a powerful realization and I think it's

why practices like mindfulness and

exactly another key factor in happiness

is our

relationships studies consistently show

that strong social connections are one

of the biggest predictors of

are social beings we thrive on

friends or even our

communities right and it's not just

about having a lot of friends but having

meaningful relationships people you can

trust and who support you absolutely

even having one close friend can make a

significant difference in your overall

well-being

that's true and with the rise of social

media it's easy to feel like we have a

lot of connections but those

interactions aren't always

meaningful yes virtual connections can

be great for staying in touch but they

don't always provide the same level of

emotional support as face-to-face

interactions exactly it's important to

nurture those deeper relationships even

if it's just a few another aspect of

happiness we can't ignore is having a

sense of purpose Mike do you think

having a clear purpose can make people

happier definitely when we have a

purpose we feel more motivated and

driven it gives us a reason to wake up

in the morning and keeps us going even

when things get tough yes and purpose

doesn't have to be something Grand it

could be as simple as being a good

something that gives your life meaning

no matter how big or small it seems and

when people find that purpose they often
