What is positive psychology?
Positive psychology is the scientific study of what makes life most worth living . It is the science of happiness that examines how we can move beyond surviving to flourishing.
Positive psychology began to develop in the late 20th Century and was officially recognized, as an area of study, in the late 1990s, when the Father of Positive Psychology, Martin Seligman, then President of the American Psychological Association, made positive psychology the focus of his presidency. Since then, a flood of research has been done on what thoughts, tools, attitudes, behaviors, and interventions promote well-being and help people flourish .
