Happiness: What is it and why does it seem fleeting and elusive?

Details
❤️ A special thanks to our Singaporean facilitators for crafting the thought-provoking Deck of Happiness Questions that shaped the success of this event at the Singapore branch of Curious Souls Café, and for their support in bringing this initiative to Hong Kong and now Taipei.
This is a specially designed event to deepen your understanding of happiness. Whether you’re content, seeking joy, or navigating life’s ups and downs, this event offers a space for meaningful reflection and connection.
Through carefully curated conversational cards, you’ll explore topics that spark introspection, gratitude, and growth. Understanding your own relationship with happiness is the first step toward cultivating a more fulfilling life.
Come with an open mind, share in enriching discussions, and leave with fresh perspectives.
Inviting all Curious Souls who are passionate about:
🌍 Embracing open-mindedness
🤝 Tapping into collective wisdom

🌱 Embarking on a journey of self improvement
📚 Exploring diverse schools of thought and personal experiences
🗓️ Agenda / What You'll Experience
💬 Round 1: Meaningful Icebreaker Conversations
We’ll kick off the session with a deck of happiness-themed conversation cards. Each attendee will pick a card as a starting point for thought-provoking, heartfelt discussions with fellow participants.
💬 Round 2: Group Discussion on a Thoughtful Topic
After warming up, the group will come together to dive deeper into a meaningful question. Participants are encouraged to contribute their own questions related to happiness or draw inspiration from the provided cards. Once all the questions are collected, the group will collaboratively select one to spark the discussion.
This is an opportunity to celebrate diversity, share unique perspectives, and engage in respectful, engaging conversations that inspire growth.
💬 Final Thoughts and Feedback
In the final 10 minutes of the event, we’ll take a moment to reflect on the key insights, memorable moments, and takeaways from our discussions. This is a chance to distill the shared wisdom and leave with a deeper understanding of the topics we’ve explored together.
After the event concludes, we may choose to extend the session for informal conversations, depending on the group’s interest. You are free to leave whenever it feels right for you.
An anonymized summary will be shared for sessions where key insights are identified. After the meeting, our facilitators and participants may reflect on the discussion and contribute to a summary or collaborative workbook based on their notes and observations. Additionally, questions may be revisited in future sessions in an anonymized manner.
