సంతోషం లేదా ఆనందం (Happiness) మనసులో కలిగే ఒక భావన. ఇది జీవితంలో కలిగిన సంతృప్తికి చిహ్నం. సంతోషానికి కారణాల కొరకు, చాలా రకాల మానసికమైన, మతపరమైన, జీవసంబంధమయిన కోణాలలో విశ్లేషించారు. కానీ సరైన సమాధానం దొరకలేదు.

Happiness is a positive and pleasant emotion, ranging from contentment to intense joy. Moments of happiness may be triggered by positive life experiences or thoughts, but sometimes it may arise from no obvious cause. The level of happiness for longer periods of time is more strongly correlated with levels of life satisfaction, subjective well-being, flourishing and eudaimonia. In common usage, the word happy can be an appraisal of those measures themselves or as a shorthand for a "source" of happiness. As with any emotion, the precise definition of happiness has been a perennial debate in philosophy.
