Positive Psychology

Soft Skills and Communication

Positive psychology is a branch of psychology, pioneered by Martin Seligman in the late 1990s, that studies what makes life fulfilling and how people can flourish, focusing on strengths, well-being, resilience, and happiness rather than solely on treating mental illness. It's applied by therapists, coaches, educators, and organizational psychologists through concepts like gratitude practices, character strengths, and the PERMA model (Positive emotion, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, Accomplishment). It has influenced coaching, workplace wellness programs, and self-help literature.
