The New Science of Well-being: Recent Discoveries for Promoting Human Flourishing
What does it mean to flourish and thrive in the 21st century? What does recent science have to say about the recipe and the key ingredients for promoting our own well-being? In this interactive session Dr. Kimberly Schonert-Reichl and Maria LeRose explore several of the key psychological, social, and biological factors that relate to well-being in both children. Kim discusses the recent research on how human connection and positive human qualities, such as empathy, compassion, forgiveness, trust, and gratitude can be cultivated through intentional everyday experiences, and how these experiences influence our health and well-being.
