Episode: Why is Finland so happy? (And what can we learn from it?)
Description: The World Happiness Report has for the fifth year in a row ranked Finland as the planet's happiest country. Yet the nation is darker and colder than Canada. So what are the Finns doing right? Could it have anything to do with sisu, saunas and plunges into ice-cold water? Medcan's Clinical Director of Psychology, Dr. Jack Muskat, investigates with Eat Move Think senior producer Russell Gragg, who recently returned from five weeks of living in Helsinki. Featuring interviews with Finnish culture experts Frank Martela, Katja Pantzar and others. Â Link to episode webpage.
