Positive Psychology of Mindfulness

To learn, a student must be mindful of her personal purpose in learning: mindful of self. A student must be mindful of his social engagement in learning: mindful of other. A student must also be mindful of the content whether it is studying the newest NASA Pluto photos or the power of adjectives: mindful of substance.

Mindfulness is an attenuated awareness that is first focused on the self. How do I feel? What am I doing? What do I want to do?

Mindfulness then is focused on others. How do they feel? Why are they doing it? What do they want me to do?

Finally, mindfulness is focused on matter and, hopefully on the subject or aspects of it, that really matter.

Positive Psychology is the scientific study of the strengths that enable individuals and communities to thrive. The field is founded on the belief that people want to lead meaningful and fulfilling lives, to cultivate what is best within themselves, and to enhance their experiences of love, work, and play.
