What is Positive Psychology?

Positive Psychology is the scientific study of human flourishing, focusing on what makes life worth living. Unlike traditional psychology, which often focuses on diagnosing and treating mental illness, Positive Psychology seeks to understand and enhance the strengths and virtues that help individuals and communities thrive. Its primary goal is to improve overall well-being, resilience, and happiness.

Why It’s Important for Personal Well-Being

In today’s fast-paced world, focusing on well-being is more crucial than ever. Positive Psychology empowers individuals to build resilience, increase happiness, and foster better relationships. It encourages people to shift their mindset from merely surviving to actively thriving—enhancing emotional, social, and psychological well-being.

The WHO’s Perspective on Well-Being

The World Health Organisation (WHO) defines health as “a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” Well-being is now officially ranked as the third sustainable development goal, alongside other critical global issues like poverty and health. This recognition underscores the growing importance of fostering well-being on both personal and societal levels.

Why You Should Care

By integrating Positive Psychology principles into your life, both personally and professionally, you unlock the potential for greater happiness, higher productivity, and deeper, more meaningful connections with others. These tools and insights will not only enhance your career performance but also support you in creating a more balanced, fulfilling life.

What is a Positive Psychology Intervention (PPI)?

A Positive Psychology Intervention (PPI) is a structured activity or practice designed to enhance an individual's well-being by focusing on their strengths, positive emotions, personal growth, and overall life satisfaction.
