8 Weeks to a Happy You

Regardless of how you might rate your current level of happiness, wouldn’t you like to feel happier? The desire for happiness is an essential part of human nature, so why aren’t more of us feeling happier, more of the time? Research shows that we often get in the way of our own happiness by searching for it in the wrong places, and mistakenly believe our happiness is determined by particular events or circumstances. Many of us compare the perceived happiness of others with our own, less happy life. Until we understand the nature of happiness and how we create our own experience of it, we will be powerless to increase our experience of it. This course will teach you the science of how you can make happiness a conscious choice, rather than a random, chance event.

The science of positive psychology, commonly referred to as ‘the science of happiness and success’ provides a unique insight into the most common habits and characteristics of people who flourish and thrive in life. Unlike the often subjective and one-size-fits-all approach offered in self-help books, positive psychology is non-prescriptive. In this course, we will help you explore and discover exactly what works for you, so you can adapt and apply these principles to fit your unique personality and lifestyle. You will learn that even the smallest of changes in thoughts and actions can have a profound and natural impact on your ability to maximize your happiness potential each day.

Feeling Happier In Your Life

This course is was written by two leading positive psychologists and researchers, based on their own experience of completing the Masters in Applied Positive Psychology degree course and investigating their own personal experience of happiness. They share their knowledge and their personal experience throughout the course as well as participating in the forums and offering free online webinar discussions from time to time. During this 8 week course you will be carefully guided as you are encouraged to explore, reflect and apply the science of happiness in your own life, to discover what will make you feel happier in your life.

The lessons will include insights such as:

  • How to define your happiness and measure it
  • The evidence that shows why happiness is the precursor to your success
  • How to adopt patterns of thinking that are shown to increase positive emotions
  • The health benefits of happiness and how to maximize them
  • How to find meaning and purpose in life and make work a happier experience
  • How to increase the happiness of your relationships
  • The different types of happiness you can experience and the benefits of each
  • How to practice compassion for yourself and for others
  • How to savor experiences to prolong positive emotions
  • How to support your happiness through mindful practice and meditation

A Message from the Authors

Lesley
“We know this works because we both learned the theory and then applied it in our own lives. The wonderful thing is, you discover what precisely works for you and adapt it to fit your lifestyle. How I apply it is completely different from Dan but we both get the same results and we feel happier than before. It’s not magic - it’s science applied in ways that work!”

Dan
“What excites me most about positive psychology is that it is based on research and that there is a science to being happier in our lives and reaching our full potential. This course brings both evidence-based tools from the research into happiness and also the personal experiences of both Lesley and I, for ways in which you can be happier in your life.”
