joyful.
Welcome to joyful.
My name is Anastazja. I am a PhD student in Psychology and joyful. is my personal project, where I share my thoughts, and talk with experts, on science-related topics.
The mission of joyful. is to share information which can increase the levels of happiness in your life, and which I hope will eventually develop into a larger project focused on spreading the joy around.
In the podcast you can find two types of episodes: Guest Series and Solo Episodes. In Guest Series, I engage in conversations with scientists, economists, psychologists, lecturers, entrepreneurs and more, to ask about their angle and expertise in domains which contribute to our overall happiness levels. In Solo Episodes, I am talking about topics related to one of the 5 happiness pillars of happiness that I've created at joyful:
- taking care of your mental and physical health
- building healthy relationships
- seeing and breathing beauty
- finding purpose and meaning
- being kind
Are you ready?
Today is a perfect day to become joyful. with us.

4. How to form long lasting good habits (and break the bad ones). | Dr Philippa Lally
(Former Healthy Habits Podcast)
In this episode of joyful. I talk with Dr Philippa Lally - a Senior Lecturer in Psychology at the University of Surrey in England and Co-Director of the Habit Application and Theory Research Group. Her research focuses on investigating habitual behaviours and, together with Dr Benjamin Gardner, she works on introducing habit-based approaches to promote healthy habits in general public.
In today's episode we discuss what are habits, how can they help us in becoming healthier in our daily lives and what are some common myths and misconceptions about them. With the rise of popularity of the Atomic Habits book and Wellbeing blogs and podcasts, more and more people become interested in the notion of good and bad habits. Today, Dr Lally is there to offer a scientific perspective on what we actually know about how good and bad habits may contribute or restrain us from living a healthy life and she offers some tips on how to make a good habit stick.
Take your notebook to write all that down and join us in joyful.
