The Happy Optimist | School Class Geeks

The Happy Optimist DUE MAY24TH

Positive psychology is concerned with strengths as much as weaknesses. The positive psychology model purports that you should be as interested in building the best things in life as you are in repairing the worst. You should be as concerned with making life fulfilling by nurturing strengths as you are with healing pathology. One way to do this is to manifest happiness through optimism and gratitude.

Using the Internet, research articles and videos about experiments conducted by Masaru Emoto on positive psychology. When conducting your Internet search, use the following keywords or phrases:

Masaru Emoto s rice experiment
Masaru Emoto: Messages from water
Masaru Emoto: Water consciousness & intent

Explain what optimism is according to the positive psychology model.
