About this ebook
Positive psychology is a branch of psychology that focuses on the positive aspects of human experience and behaviour, aiming to enhance well-being and promote flourishing. Traditional psychology has often focused on treating mental illness and dysfunction, whereas Positive psychology emerged to provide a more holistic understanding of human nature by studying positive emotions, strengths, and virtues. As societies progress, there is an increasing recognition that measuring progress solely through economic indicators is insufficient. Positive psychology addresses the need to enhance overall life satisfaction and happiness. Positive psychology aims to improve the quality of life by focusing on aspects such as happiness, life satisfaction, and the overall well-being of individuals and communities. By emphasizing positive emotions, relationships, and individual strengths, positive psychology can contribute to preventing mental health issues and promoting resilience. Positive psychology is not only about treating issues but also about optimizing human performance. It explores how individuals and organizations can thrive and achieve their full potential. Positive psychology is essential in the present scenario as it provides a comprehensive framework for understanding and enhancing the positive aspects of human life. Its application extends to various domains, contributing to individual well-being, organizational success, and societal progress. In order to realize the importance of this branch of psychology, I made myself to contribute this small work by combining others' thoughts and views through their conceptual understanding and a few studies in this area to some extent.
