How Might Beauty Save the World?

Can we elevate our days, strengthen health and optimism and somehow build a better world for others and the planet? Research in the fields of positive and environmental psychology demonstrate that activation of a character strength, known as Appreciation of Beauty and Excellence, accomplishes all that. Attention to natural beauty heals and calms us. Attention to moral beauty (goodness) awakens our better selves, triggering generosity. Attention to excellence motivates us to strive forward toward our own domains of excellence. And, this character strength, more than any other, triggers pro-environmental behavior. While it inspires wellbeing, kindness, love and vitality, it also contributes directly to the betterment of our earth and its species. With regular, simple practices, we can shepherd ourselves and the young ones arounds us, (in dining rooms and classrooms and work rooms), toward health and impactful citizenship, easily and joyfully.

Hartford Happiness Club

The time has come to spread happiness in Hartford CT! I recently graduated with certification in Positive Psychology from the Wholebeing Institute taught by Tal Ben Shahar. I am excited to share and continue to grow as a lifelong learner giving my life meaning and purpose. My studies include a Masters of Arts in Experiential Health and Healing from the Graduate Institute in 2008. Dr. Bernie Siegel was my mentor who put me on a path to learn, grow and share. Bernie taught me how to take life and all it is complexities and make it simple. Through Bernie, I met founder of the Happiness Club Lionel Ketchian at a workshop.

It was at this point where I was introduced to The Happiness Clubs. I never looked back. Lionel was put on this earth to plant seeds of happiness around the world. I am humbled to have Lionel in my life and be part of something larger than life.
