What is happiness? Does getting what we want necessarily lead to happiness? Does the absence of physical or mental health conditions necessarily result in personal happiness? Traditional sources of security like achievement, income and employment are now recognised by psychologists to be insufficient for holistic well-being. This workshop introduces participants to the emerging and exciting field of positive psychology that promotes well-being through positive emotions such as contentment, gratitude and hope. This contrasts with the emphasis on reducing negative emotions seen in previous psychological scholarship. Through in-class individual and group exercises, participants will have the opportunity to deeply reflect on what makes life truly fulfilling.
