PNTV: Positive Psychology and the Body by Kate Hefferon (#413)
You Are Heroic with Brian Johnson
The Astrics of Optimism
Being in the top quartile of optimism has the same health benefits as not smoking two packs a day, says Martin selingman. At 93 years old, you still had 52 % of the happy nuns alive and 18 % of the unhappy ones alive. Positive emotions matter for your longevity but astrics are very important. Sugar is a tocin positive nutrition. Astrics on positivity: Be inspired and grounded; then boom, you have energized tranquillity or calm confidence.

Here are 5 of my favorite Big Ideas from Positive Psychology and the Body by Kate Hefferon. Hope you enjoy! "Positive Psychology and the Body." Unfortunately, those two subjects are rarely connected--which is why I was so excited to get this book when I saw the title. It's actually a *textbook* not a normal book. It provides an overview of research on a range of subjects including: "Positive Psychophysiology," "Positive Neuroscience," "Positive Sexuality" and "Positive Nutrition." Big Ideas we explore include a quick look at Martin Seligman's PERMA approach to eudaimonic (vis-a-vis hedonic) happiness, your nervous system (flip the switch!), longevity and positive emotion (some astonishing stats), diet and wellbeing/depression (sugar begone!), and physical activity (science says: it does a body good!).
