Only when we admit we have a problem can we begin to find solutions. In the first episode of "How to Build a Happy Life," we explore the neuroscience of emotional management, practices that help us befriend our inner monologue, and challenges to getting in touch with our feelings. Our journey to happier living starts with the question: How do I feel right now?

This episode of "How to Build a Happy Life" features Dan Harris, the former ABC News anchor, meditation expert, and founder of Ten Percent Happier.

This episode was produced by Rebecca Rashid and hosted by Arthur Brooks. Editing by A.C. Valdez, Katherine Wells, and Gillian White. Fact-check by Ena Alvarado. Sound design by Michael Raphael.
