Happiness Habits are simple practices which have been scientifically proven to grow your happiness, resilience & well-being. With around 40% of your happiness under your direct control, there is a lot you can do to influence your well-being. It’s a case of putting in practice, because as one leading positive psychologist said “Happiness is NOT a spectator sport”.

Positive leaders are able to develop their workforce’s capacity to thrive. Positive leadership draws on scientific evidence to help leaders and managers to grow their business, productivity and profitability, promote workplace well-being and help people to thrive.

We offer a multiplicity of options for your Well-being, Wellness, Workplace Well-being or Health & Well-being week. Here’s a couple of ideas to get you started. We can often adapt something you’ll find on the website to suit you.

Join two of the UK’s leading positive psychology trainers for a Masterclass in how to flourish

The Positive Psychology Masterclass is a 4-day practical course in the science of happiness, strengths & well-being for both personal and professional development and for practitioners who want to add positive psychology into their toolkit. Learn how to feel good, function well and flourish through our experiential two 2-day workshops – Part 1 is the Introduction to Positive Psychology and Part 2 is the Advanced course.

Resilience is the ability to cope positively in difficult times, to manage stress, to keep going when the chips are down, bounce back from adversity and achieve goals in challenging conditions. It is something that is very much needed in the 21st century, where uncertainty has come to define so much in our lives. A high level of resilience is essential for leaders in the workplace. Some people have a natural resilience – when knocked down they come back stronger than ever, but the good news is that resilience is a capacity that can be developed. There is plenty of evidence to show this. We can build resilience for personal well-being, for the workplace and in the community.

Flourishing people make for flourishing organisations. Positive psychology – the study of optimal functioning – applies the knowledge and tools to help people and organisations flourish.

Picture yourself in a beautiful, natural location. A peaceful place to relax and renew. Sessions of yoga and meditation Delicious, wholesome food freshly prepared for you. The perfect setting for a course in happiness. A wellness retreat is a great way to experience the feel-good factor which comes from immersing yourself in positive psychology, the science of happiness.

Aged 50+? Would you like to add well-being to later life? And bounce back better from its challenges?

Take Part in PART – Positive Ageing & Resilience Training.

Ageing has a really bad press, but is it really as bad as much of the media makes out? And is there anything that we can do to make our later years happier and healthier? Research in the field of positive psychology and social gerontology has demonstrated that how we feel about our ageing process can have a very significant influence on it. If we approach it negatively – we are likely to have some pretty poor outcomes. If we develop a more positive mindset and approach however, the evidence is clear that we are much more likely to live healthier and happier lives in old age.

Why is it important for a company to look after the well-being of its staff? Well it’s a simple formula. There is a proven link between happiness and success, which has been shown again and again by research. For an organisation to flourish its people need to be feeling good and functioning well. It’s a win:win. Happy employees are more productive, creative and resilient in times of uncertainty. The bottom line is that staff well-being is linked to company success.

This one-day workshop explores the 5 pillars of well-being outlined in Prof Martin Seligman’s PERMA model, described in the book Flourish. It’s a practical workshop with tips and tools to put you & others on the path to greater well-being.
