Is there a philosophy similar to hedonism, but not as radical?

So hedonism sounds a lot like an escape, actively avoid pain, and seek pleasure. I can see it easily leading to addiction, for instance. But I do like the basic idea of hedonism. What is life, if not the pursuit of your desires, instead of being imposed a specific way of life? (As long as not hurting others, and yourself for that matter)

Are there other philosophies that kind of fit this?

Epicureanism might fit this description

> Epicurus advocated living in such a way as to derive the greatest amount of pleasure possible during one's lifetime, yet doing so moderately in order to avoid the suffering incurred by overindulgence in such pleasure.
