The Happy Rise is a platform dedicated to the sustainable elevation of happiness, both individual and collective. It offers an approach based on optimism, intention, and harmony, through experiences, tools, and methods that foster the cultivation of deep, authentic, and shared well-being. The platform was created by Hugues ALARD, a positive entrepreneur.

“The Happy Rise” suggests the idea of an upward movement toward a heightened state of happiness, where one cultivates and radiates positive emotions and attitudes.

According to contemporary analyses of happiness, this concept can be understood as the emergence and multiplication of positive moods: to be happy is to experience a positive mood—whether playfulness, calm, excitement, serenity, etc.—and to see this mood rise and amplify in one’s daily life. Thus, “The Happy Rise” refers to the capacity to grow within oneself and around oneself a dynamic of well-being, optimism, and satisfaction that fuels motivation, creativity, and personal or collective fulfillment.

In short, “The Happy Rise” symbolizes the ascent toward a lasting state of happiness, nourished by the diversity and richness of good moods, and the conscious intention to radiate joy and well-being into one’s environment.

Missions

  • Awaken and elevate joy, creativity, and self-confidence in each person, through innovative and inspiring spaces, experiences, and methods.
  • Cultivate an environment where optimism, kindness, and authenticity are encouraged and shared, to foster personal and collective flourishing.
  • Support individuals and communities in revealing and expressing their potential, by giving them the tools to align with their deepest values and shine in their environment.
  • Act at all levels (personal, collective, global) to contribute to a more luminous, supportive, and harmonious world.
  • Raise awareness and illuminate minds by offering tools, resources, and experiences that enable each person to discover their own path to happiness and personal fulfillment.

The methods are a synthesis of art therapy, as found in the Wellbeing and Happiness Museum (wellbeingmuseum), intuition, intention, alignment coherence, positivity, the creative spirit through the pursuit of beauty, prioritizing reflection, experimentation, and action. The principles are close to the teachings of Ralph Waldo Emerson, with an added collective dimension.
