ABOUT US
Happiness Initiative believes in the emerging field of the science of well-being. Through sharing the science of well-being, we hope to inspire you to embark on your personal journey towards greater well-being.
Simon, our founder, began to value well-being during his lowest moments. On hindsight, he only wished that he had the protective factors that could put a halt to those eternities of downward spiral. Protective factors can be mindset, resilience, optimism, mindfulness, self-regulation, self-determination, self-efficacy, to name only a few. These protective factors can be taught and can be learnt.
“For it is my belief that no medication or technique of therapy holds as much promise for serving as a buffer against mental illness as does human strength.”
– Martin Seligman, University of Pennsylvania
The protective factors are the human strengths that will buffer us in times of need. Positive psychology is the emerging field that focuses on cultivating these protective factors.
