Based off Martin Seligman’s pioneering work on Authentic Happiness, this training will give participants an overview of the foundations of Positive Psychology while helping them ascertain their most positive strengths that will help them excel in multiple areas of their life. While traditional teachings on psychology have tended to focus on mental illness and negative thinking, positive psychology emphasizes happiness and wellbeing and maintains that this can be achieved by identifying and nurturing traits such as kindness, originality, humor, and optimism.
