Why Happiness Matters for Your Bones, Health, & Longevity | Marci Shimoff
Episode 370
Tuesday, 8 September, 2026
Could being happier actually be good for your bones? Happiness may seem unrelated to bone health, but research suggests there's a fascinating connection between our emotional well-being, stress, and physical health. In this conversation, I sit down with my mentor and one of the world's leading happiness experts, Marci Shimoff, to explore why happiness deserves a place in your bone-health journey and how you can become happier, even when life gets difficult. Marci is a New York Times bestselling author whose books have sold more than 16 million copies worldwide, and her work has profoundly influenced the way I teach happiness. She shares her powerful "inner home for happiness" framework and gives us simple practices we can start using right away. You'll learn her sunning meditation, the Inner Ease technique, and one simple question that can help you practice more self-love every day. We also talk about finding peace and happiness during grief, illness, and other difficult seasons of life. "Happy for no reason means that you have an inner state of peace and well-being that doesn't depend on your circumstances." ~ Marci Shimoff In this episode: - [02:39] - The health benefits of happiness - [04:46] - Marci's journey from depression to happiness - [10:39] - Your happiness set point and its significance - [13:02] - The seven areas of your inner home for happiness - [18:08] - Finding happiness during grief and difficult times - [23:09] - The sunning meditation - [24:50] - The Inner Ease technique - [29:11] - A simple question to ask yourself today - [30:26] - Why happiness isn't selfish - [32:33] - The Happy for No Reason workbook and Living in the Miracle Zone - [34:17] - Margie's Happy Me, Happy Life class Resources - Discounted Supplements at Margie's Fullscript Dispensary (There is a Labor Day Supplement Sale from September 7-9, 2026) - https://tinyurl.com/supplementsforless - Marci Shimoff's free gift (Happy for No Reason Workbook) - http://happyfornoreason.com/workbook - Marci's podcast (Living in the Miracle Zone) - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCmNObyOx_1ADDQ1u4Rl93WjFqMiDvNC0 - Margie's membership that includes monthly happiness class - Happy Bones Club - $29/month - https://www.happyboneshappylife.com/bones-club - Margie's Happiness Program - https://www.happyboneshappylife.com/happy-me-happy-life-evergreen-program (use coupon code HAPPY2026 for a $100 discount) More about Margie - Website - https://margiebissinger.com/ - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/p/Margie-Bissinger-MS-PT-CHC-100063542905332/ - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/margiebissinger/?hl=en DISCLAIMER – The information presented on this podcast should not be construed as medical advice.
