Positive Emotions help us flourish
Positive emotions, in Dr. Martin Seligman’s perspective, encompass a range of feelings such as joy, gratitude, serenity, interest, hope, pride, amusement, inspiration, awe, and love. These emotions are crucial in enhancing an individual’s mental and emotional health. According to Seligman, fostering positive emotions is not just about feeling good temporarily; it is also linked to building resilience, improving coping mechanisms, and contributing to a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
