Positive psychology is the scientific study of human strengths and resilience. It looks at what's right about people: their talents and values, their capacity for growth and goodness.
Positive psychology is informed by years of robust research that tells us how we can improve our mental and physical well-being through such practices as gratitude, compassion, mindfulness, optimism, awe, forgiveness, altruism and connection with others.
Applying the insights from positive psychology to our daily lives not only improves our individual health and happiness, but it also contributes to the greater good of society as a whole.
