Positive Psychology and Mindset Tools to Regain Perspective

In this workshop, we will look at how our mind reacts to sudden change and a loss of control, at negative emotions and how processing them can help us to cultivate positive emotions, positive engagement, positive relationships, positive meaning, and positive goals. We will focus on aspects of ourselves and our life that have been proven to optimize our well-being, and talk about resources and opportunities in these difficult circumstances.

Use the power of positive psychology to learn:

• How your mind reacts to sudden change and loss of control
• How to process negative emotions
• How to cultivate positive emotions for resilience
• How to shift your mindset and find opportunities in a crisis.

Positive psychology is the science of optimal functioning, well-being, and performance for individuals, communities and organizations.

”Positive psychology grew largely from the recognition of an imbalance in clinical psychology, in which most research does indeed focus on mental illness. Despite these inequities, positive psychology’s aim is not the denial of the distressing, unpleasant, or negative aspects of life, nor is it an effort to see them through rose-colored glasses. Those who study topics in positive psychology fully acknowledge the existence of human suffering, selfishness, dysfunctional family systems, and ineffective institutions. But the aim of positive psychology is to study the other side of the coin—the ways that people feel joy, show altruism, and create healthy families and institutions—thereby addressing the full spectrum of human experience.” - Gabe and Haide)
