College student Liam Elkind studied happiness in the class
taught by Dr Laurie Santos. When the Covid 19 crisis hit, he knew

arouses in us all - he helped set up a volunteer group called

improve our own wellbeing while protecting us from emotional
burnout. And with a guided meditation Dr Santos shows that
compassion is thing we can nurture and develop.
