How Do I Know If I'm Thriving? (special community talk share + short practice) [ep. 156]

Joy Lab Podcast

How do you know if you're thriving? That's a question we received from one of our NMH Community members. We'll talk about this concept of thriving through the lens of positive psychology, leaning on Dr. Martin Seligman's PERMA model which includes Positive Emotion, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Accomplishment. Most of all, we'll focus on thriving as a practice rather than a fixed state and highlight the learnable skills we can all integrate to go beyond our baseline. Stay as well for the guided practice to help you tune into your own states of openness or constriction, inviting a more holistic understanding of your emotional and mental wellbeing.
