It's Thanksgiving - a good time to think about gratitude and
being selfless. Concentrating on the things we have to be
grateful for is a great way to boost your happiness. So thank the
people who've done good things for you, and think of ways you can
help others too.

This circle of gratitude – the science suggests – will also make
you a better friend to one of the most important people in your
life… your future self.

In a re-run of a 2020 episode, Dr Laurie investigates this effect
with Northeastern University’s Professor David DeSteno – author
of “Emotional Success: The Power of Gratitude, Compassion and
Pride.”
