The Positive Psychology Student Club (PPSC) aims to create a safe environment for students to rethink mental wellness through the lens of positive psychology.
To date, much of psychology has been concerning the questions of “what is wrong with me?” and “how can I be fixed?”. Positive psychology is the scientific study of what makes our lives worth living, where the goal is to make normal life more fulfilling! Differing from the traditional approach of mental wellness advocacy, we hope to divert the attention from “what is wrong with me?” to “what is right with me?”. Under academic pressure, students can oftentimes be sidetracked by the achievement of others. We aim to deliver educational content on means you can use to reflect on your past accomplishment, start noticing the little things that bring you joy, and eventually allow you to realize how awesome you are! The deliverables will be in the form of open discussion via virtual gathering and onboarding panelists that specialize in the study of positive psychology to provide professional insights.
