Happiness
Flourishing, rather than constant pleasure: resources, relationships, meaning, engagement and a contribution to the systems we belong to.

What flourishing means
The science of
human flourishing.
To flourish is, quite literally, to bloom.
In positive psychology, flourishing describes a deep, multidimensional state of wellbeing: more than experiencing pleasant emotions, it means realising our potential, building meaningful relationships, finding meaning in life, being guided by purpose and challenging goals, and growing as human beings.
Flourishing does not mean being happy all the time. It means creating the conditions to become all that we can be.
The Applied Science of Happiness studies and promotes the conditions that support this process, turning them into practical programmes and experiences in life, relationships, organisations and hospitality.
