Discover the power of positive psychology - social psychology

Positive Psychology isn't just a theoretical approach; it's a practical, scientifically proven tool for transforming your life. Studies have shown that keeping a gratitude journal for weeks can reduce anxiety, improve sleep, strengthen the immune system, and increase lasting happiness.

How it works: The "broaden-and-build" theory

Barbara Fredrickson's theory explains that positive emotions broaden our minds and build lasting resources like creativity, resilience, and social networks. When we practice gratitude regularly, we train our brains to detect the positive, counteracting our evolutionary tendency toward dangers (negativity bias).

Practical Interventions and Their Results

• Gratitude Journal: Recording three good things a day generates long-term improvements in mood, optimism, goal-setting, and physical health.
• Gratitude Letter: Writing and delivering a letter thanking someone can boost happiness by 10% and reduce depressive symptoms for weeks.
• Three Good Things: This brief exercise improves well-being and reduces depression, with sustained effects of up to six months.

The PERMA Approach: A Structured Path to Well-Being

Seligman's PERMA model articulates five essential areas:

• Positive Emotions
• Engagement or flow
• Supportive relationships
• Meaning or purpose
• Achievements

Recent research supports that this structure improves life satisfaction and reduces anxiety and depression in different populations: from stroke patients to university students.

Why is this course different?

Because it offers:

1. Clear scientific bases (theory + recent empirical evidence).
2. Practical exercises: gratitude journals, letters, flow practices and relational gratitude.
3. Personal and professional application: ideal for daily use, educational, work or health contexts.
4. Sustainable results: The benefits persist if the habits are integrated into daily life.

Who is it for?

This course is designed for people with no prior training in psychology who are looking for accessible tools, but also for professionals who want to apply these methods in their environment: teachers, coaches, therapists, team managers or those responsible for organizational well-being.

What does it include?

• Explanatory modules on emotions, gratitude, PERMA and “flow” techniques.
• Guided exercises and templates for journaling, letters and PERMA evaluation.
• Real case studies and results analysis.
• Access to community, discussion forums and progress tracking.

Results that make a difference.

Participants report improvements of between 6% and 15% in well-being, with significant decreases in symptoms of depression and anxiety. They also increase their resilience, ability to recover from stress, and the quality of their relationships.
