• Preliminary analysis on organisation data (n=20) indicated statistically significant improvements in wellbeing (as measured by PERMA-profiler) and resilience (as measured by Brief Resilience Scale (BRS)), P=0.00, d=0.37, and p=0.05 , d=0.33, respectively.

• Furthermore reductions were seen for anxiety and stress, although the sample size was not sufficiently large to determine statistical significance.

• No changes were found for depression, which could be explained by the low number of respondents in the sample displaying distress due to low mood.

THE GOOD NEWS

TRAINING AND PRACTICE CAN CHANGE THE BRAIN

OVERCOMING THE NEGATIVITY BIAS

• Our brain is wired to process threats and negative information efficiently

• We more easily spot negative expressions in others than positive

• Fight, flight or freeze response is useful short-term, not long-term

(Rozin & Royzman, 2001)

BROADEN & BUILD THEORY

• Positive emotions broaden our awareness and capacity for new experiences

• Critical for building relationships: ratio 5:1

(Fredrickson & Joiner, 2002; Fredrickson & Levenson, 1998; Isen et al., 1997, 1990)
