In this 30-minute talk from RSA, positive psychologist Martin Seligman talks about how there is much more to human life than reducing suffering. He argues for the idea of “PERMA� which he puts forth in his latest book Flourish. Each letter of PERMA stands for an element which he argues is essential to well-being. P stands for Positive emotion, E stands for Engagement which he relates to the idea of flow, R stands for Relationships and their importance, M stands for having Meaning, and A stands for Achievement and accomplishing something with your life. Working with the U.S. military, he has put these measurable aspects of well-being to the test to not only reduce PTSD and suicide, but also to push individuals to thrive in the face of adversity.
