Happy, from a Phenomenological Standpoint?

This chapter discusses the notion of happiness from a phenomenological (strictly Husserlian) point of view. In the paper the author combines her experience as philosophical practitioner with her philosophical knowledge of Husserl’s phenomenology to address some of the most common questions that clients raised around happiness. Can I have all that I desire and still be unhappy? Would good habits help me to live a happy life? Can I decide to be happy? Can I be happy despite my bad luck? These are some of the questions that this paper is going to investigate using the auxiliary help of Husserl’s phenomenology.
