    Positivity cannot be forced. Self-awareness is primal and cannot be purchased. There is a natural joy that comes from being at one with oneself free of denial in any form.

      but I'm sure that positivity can be learnt as well as a skill to be happy. I've been practicing a number of the positive psychology strategies for year but I acquired them outside this branch of psychology, Seligman and his colleagues did a Good Job systemising models, exercising and presenting The System. I'm rigorously convinced that happiness (better to say "eudaimonia") is an acquirable skill and only systematic approach can delivery any of the benefits at all. Positive Psychology for me is a systematic way to get an essential skills to live eudamonic life.

      Claude, dharma doesn't force or buy self awareness, it allows one to see it by creating favorable conditions, just as the wind blows the clouds away from the ever-shining sun.

    This is Dylan Jones and I am using my coaches laptop because my computer is getting fixed. this video is about being positive; positive psychology. I find it hard to be positive when I am in so much pain. PERMA the letter E is what I am working on now at this time in my life; trying to find what strengths I have but it is hard b/c I can't move around very well but PERMA does make sense and it was a good video to watch and to try and change my mindset when the pain becomes too much.

    @edenlifeonearth 4 роки тому +1

    Its all very well saying every human being can say yes to PERMA, but how? I think we know most of these things but the sad reality is : we humans can't do it. It's like the diet schemes he talked about at the beginning: we all know we need to eat healthily and do exercise but we can't sustain it. It'd be great to give us some ideas as to how to incorporate these and how to make sustained changes. Thanks.

    How exactly do you measure strength in correlation to trauma

    • @JuliaMaclean-wm7oz
      @JuliaMaclean-wm7oz 2 місяці тому

      Just acknowledging you went through trauma and recognizing it. Just recognizing it within is a huge step that so many don't even get to that level of self awareness in their life. ( Sadly). unfortunately it's tricky I believe it stays the rest of your life. Very difficult to self diagnose cause people lived/survived with it in being part of their DNA, and it definitely isn't recognized or understood buy society. It's new we are addressing trauma. Doctor Gaber Mate I believe was the first to really study it and share with the world.

      I'm glad I found this comment. I appreciate you for this. I'm here because someone referred to this man as the father of modern psychology. I sure hope not. I thought Freud was bad enough. Torturing animals is one of the clearest signs of disturbing pathologies known to psychology. Good grief. What a world.
