About US
Positive psychology is a new subfield of applied psychology that was first introduced in 1998 by Martin Seligman and Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. It is a scientific study of factors that contribute to human flourishing and well-being. As opposed to traditional psychology that primarily focuses on people’s problems and disorders, positive psychology centers upon the character strengths and behaviour that enable individuals to thrive and live their best lives.
Based on Martin Seligman's five elements of a happy life – Positive Emotion, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Accomplishment (PERMA), instead of repairing the bad, positive psychology interventions aims at raising positive feelings, positive cognitions and positive behavior, thus fostering positive human development and making life more rewarding and fulfilling.
Positive Psychology Lab is designed by a group of professional psychologists and talent development consultants. We provide the latest positive psychology knowledge and practical tools to help people from all walks of life to pursue a well-lived and meaningful life.
