EXCLUSIVE TO PUSHKIN+ MEMBERS: The spring flowers, snorting laughs, people who walk their cats on leashes. Beautiful, joyous and remarkable things are all around us every day of our lives... but sometimes we just don't notice or value them. Poet Ross Gay set himself the challenge to hunt out "delights" every day for a year - and write a record of what he had seen. The experiment opened up a new and delightful world for him - a world that had been right under his nose all along. Dr Laurie Santos asks Ross about the importance of stopping to notice "delights" as a way to find greater happiness through gratitude, perspective and social connection.
