The 3 Good Podcast: Episode 12 It's not about happiness


Listen Later

On this episode, Sukh talks about happiness and how it's not easy to find as people want it to be, or make claims about the right way to be happy. He argues perhaps happiness - and unhappiness - are what we describe when either other things are going very well for us, or when other things are not going well.

He explains the PERMA model by Martin Seligman in which he discusses you can think about and improve your wellbeing and raise your resilience. Wellbeing and resilience are concepts you can measure and you can improve tacitly - that is by doing things. The PERMA model is

  • Positive emotion
  • Engagement
  • Relationships
  • Meaning
  • Achievements
  •  

    You can read more about this model in Martin Seligman's book, Flourish.
