10 ways to increase your happiness Source: Kimberly Garrison, Philadelphia Daily News, Daily News Personal FItness Columnist
I recently had the pleasure of participating in the fifth annual Tea and Conversation event hosted by the Daily News and Inquirer. More than 100 African-American women attended. The event explored what happiness means to us. I believe it is inextricably linked to our health and well-being. Science backs me up on this, too. According to the writings of Martin Seligman, director of the University of Pennsylvania's Positive Psychology Center, happiness leads to better health, resilience and good performance. There's even evidence suggesting that happy people live longer than depressed people.

In one study, the difference was a whopping nine years of additional life between the happiest and the unhappiest people. (For more information on Seligman's theories, check out www.authentichappiness.sas.upenn.edu.)

Like most people I have had my share of trials and tribulations, ups and downs, good and bad times. I've lost loved ones whom I miss dearly, suffered a few broken hearts, lost a few jobs and suffered other personal tragedies as well. Read full story here.
