Behaviour (in relation to wellbeing)

We look at the happiness pie from Professor Sonja Lyubomirsky’s scientific research using identical and non-identical twins. We ask the question, what has the most influence over our happiness, is it genetics, behaviour, or circumstances? We then look at practical ways that we can change our behaviour to improve our wellbeing. 

We look at psychometrics which can help us determine positive psychology interventions that align with our values, strengths and busy schedules.

We reflect on the four key components to positive wellbeing

Gratitude

Growth

People

Purpose

We bring everything together at this point to examine, what happens when you align your strengths, values and behaviour. We compare this to a similar model from Japanese philosophy “Ikigai” or “purpose”. What you Love, What you’re good at, What the world needs and What you can be paid for.
