Practices that may help

  1. Seligman’s PERMA Model, Made Practical
    Martin Seligman’s PERMA model identifies five pillars of well-being: Positive Emotions, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Accomplishment. Unlike happiness models that treat well-being as a single variable, PERMA argues these five elements are each intrinsically valued and each independently improvable. Several PERMA-targeted interventions have randomized-trial support; others are mechanistically grounded with less direct evidence.
  2. Run a PERMA audit of your current well-being
    Rate each of the five PERMA pillars to find which is currently limiting your overall flourishing.
