Question of the Week: The Pursuit of Happiness

It's Sunday 8 AM. I'm just waking up from a very rare 14-hour uninterrupted sleep. Very rarely am I able to get more than a few hours of consolidated sleep, but this was different. Yesterday I was up at 4:30 AM. I needed to be at Balboa Park in San Diego at 5:30 AM.   NAMI San Diego was staging its annual Walk. I serve on the NAMI SD board,... Read moreChevron

Happiness: Capitalizing on Our Strengths and Virtues

Let's wrap up this series on happiness with one more look at Martin Seligman's 2002 book, "Authentic Happiness." Dr Seligman, as you recall, is the founder of "positive psychology," which seeks to answer the hardly ever-asked question of "what goes right?"

Happiness, Mental Wellness and Positive Psychology

Over the last four or five weeks, we have been exploring the topic of happiness. It is fair to say that the guru on the topic is Martin Seligman of the University of Pennsylvania. In his 1998 Presidential address to the American Psychological Society, Dr Seligman challenged his colleagues to focus on the things that go right in human nature rather... Read moreChevron

My Practical (and Gratifying) Experience with Happiness

Previous pieces have reported on the Dalai Lama's "The Art of Happiness," Gretchen Rubin's "The Happiness Project," and a milestone study tracking a cohort of Harvard men over six decades.

My plane to New Zealand was leaving just before midnight, but I have a thing about being late. While waiting, I started... Read moreChevron
