Prof. Dr. Barbara Fredrickson’s two decades of scientific research on positive emotions has become foundational within the new positive psychology. She discovered that experiencing positive emotions in a 3-to-1 ratio with negative ones leads people to a tipping point beyond which they naturally become more resilient to adversity and lead more vibrant, flourishing lives.
Positive emotions literally change people’s outlook on life, widening their perspectives. According to Fredrickson’s broaden-and-build theory of positive emotions, this shift in mindset drives people to discover and build new traits, skills, and resources, becoming better versions of themselves over time. In this presentation, she’ll describe the research that backs up these claims as well as the lab-tested tools for raising your own positivity ratio.
