Self-Care

                                                   The Pleasant Life

A life full of positive emotion. Experiencing pleasure and learning skills to build and maintain positive emotions. Traits of the pleasant life are often inherited.

The Good Life

Positive engagement in life tasks such as parenting or work which is called "flow". A person with high flow will be challenged by their tasks, but not overwhelmed. They might feel that time flies by when they are engaged.

The Meaningful Life

Using individual strengths for something greater than one's self. Deriving meaning and value from life. Happiness from the meaningful life is deep, rich, and resilient.
