Introducing Positive Psychology: A Practical Guide

By Bridget Grenville-Cleave

Book Overview

Positive psychologists seek to find and nurture genius and talent, and to make normal life more fulfilling, rather than treat mental illness.

This Practical Guide explores how we can all have a "life of enjoyment", in which we savour the positive emotions that are part of healthy living; a "life of engagement" where we feel confident we can tackle the tasks we face; and a 'life of affiliation', being part of something larger than ourselves.

Free of jargon but full of straightforward advice, case studies and step-by-step instructions, this is the perfect concise start to making your life better.
