The Science and Skill of Flourishing

We don’t have to guess about what leads to a joyful, meaningful, accomplished life … or what psychologists call “flourishing.” Since 1998 the emerging science of positive psychology has increasingly laid the groundwork for determining what enables us to flourish. In this presentation, Doug Smith, author of Happiness: The Art of Living with Peace, Confidence and Joy will share 13 skills and the science behind these skills that enable one to flourish. These skills are brought to life through stories, humor, videos, research studies and audience participation.
