Positive Psychology and Mindfulness in Edmonton

What Is Positive Psychology?

Positive psychology is based in the same ideas in some cognitive behavioural therapy tools, the goal of changing neural pathways and strengthening positive thought patterns. In positive psychology we focus on strengths and how to develop positive thoughts and behaviours and healthy coping skills. Positive psychology believes we are resilient in nature and sometimes we forget that when life gets tough. Our goal is to help shed light on it again and help you see or remember how strong you really are. Here’s a great video on positive psychology.

What is Mindfulness?

Mindfulness is the basic human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing, and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s going on around us. Mindfulness is a quality that every human being already possesses, it’s not something you have to conjure up, you just have to learn how to access it. Studies on mindfulness show it is a successful tool to reduce negative psychological symptoms.
