Cultivating Optimism, Facilitated by Hope Levy

Would you like to improve your level of happiness, life satisfaction and wellbeing as you age? If so, this fun, interactive program is for you! You will learn how to practice evidence-based strategies used in Positive Psychology to face life’s challenges and adversities as we age, with greater optimism and resilience.

Positive Psychology is a scientifically based branch of psychology, pioneered by Martin EP Seligman from the University of Pennsylvania. Positive Psychology is the science that explores how happiness and wellbeing can be improved and sustained by building on our strengths, rather than fixing our weaknesses. In other words, it differs from traditional psychology by focusing on what is right with you as a way to build on intrinsic strengths and abilities.
