Happiness Course in Hafnarfjörður

Three courses available in September, October and November 2023. See the event on Facebook. Happiness course in Hafnarfjörður in September | Facebook

– A practical workshop for everyone who wants to improve their well-being in daily life using positive psychology techniques, with Borghildur Sverrisdóttir, psychology teacher and author of the book 'Hamingjan eflir heilsuna'. The course will introduce and work on methods that generally deliver the most significant results for the greatest well-being for most people. The emphasis is on participants getting practice in using the techniques, but the theory and research behind these methods will also be presented.
The session will cover ways to increase life satisfaction, such as fostering positive feelings and thoughts in daily life; it will also discuss the importance of recognising and strengthening strengths that are most closely linked to life satisfaction. The impact of self-compassion on life satisfaction will be discussed, and methods for enhancing it will be explored. We will also discuss the core elements of mindfulness and practise it both during the course and outside of it to the best of our ability. The course is individualised, meaning that each person will try and work with methods to enhance their own life satisfaction and self-compassion in their daily lives as much as possible.
Your benefits are:
  • To gain an understanding of the usefulness of positive psychology methods.
  • To be able to assess which exercises suit you best by trying them for yourself.
  • An opportunity to improve your mindset and self-perception, thereby boosting your self-esteem.
  • An opportunity to try out the various ways to enhance your well-being and adopt them during the period.
  • An opportunity for increased self-awareness.
