1: Pathways to Happiness
PERMA Pathways
Rate 1-10
If you were to rewrite the pathway for yourself, what would
yours say? (1 for all)
Positive emotions & pleasure
I love enjoying myself and delight in pleasures on a daily basis
whether it’s laughing, enjoying a good meal, savoring a child’s
laughter, buying shoes, or listening to music, watching the
sunset.
Engagement & Flow
I often and easily lose myself in difficult activities like
scrap booking, playing tennis, doing research, solving cross-words,
collecting stamps or in activities others think I spend much time
doing.
Relationship
I care deeply about family and friends. I call them often and
spend as much time with them as I can. If they are sad or need
help, I try to help or just sit with them. My social circle means
everything to me; I would choose them every day over activities. I
find my happiness in others.
Meaning
My values, beliefs, or religion matters. When I decide to do
something, I consider how it fits my purpose. I do the right thing.
Morals are vital. I think about how I live my life; what it
means.
Accomplishment
I set goals and see how much I achieve and make happen for
myself. I like to see how far I can go and what I am made of. I
love succeeding, meeting my goals and setting new ones!
PPI: Mindfulness is the state of being attentive and aware
of what is happening in the immediate present. When mindful, we are
open to experience and not stuck in mindless, automatic routine,
nor are we overly self-conscious. We can choose our responses and
regulate our emotions. We can also make more room for positive
events and positive emotions more fully as mindfulness involves the
ability to suspend past or future distractions. Your mind should be
at the same place as your body. This seems obvious, but we spend a
lot of time speeding ahead to next month or reliving the events of
2004. While positive reminiscing is encouraged to generate positive
feelings in the present, reminiscing about negative events in the
past, or those we believe will happen in the future is not
productive and leads to depression and anxiety. Moreover, who is
living your life today if you are totally absorbed in the past or
future? You are missing opportunities for change, positive events,
and the goodness around you because you are too mentally busy to
notice it.
