Recenzijas

I once read how a nurse has the opportunity to heal the mind, soul, heart, and body of our patients. They may forget your name but they will never forget how you made them feel." (Maya Angelou). Positive Psychology helps us be our best selves, and to be our best for others requires feeling our best selves too. What Jan has done by her research and throughout this book has helped find a way to keep our nurses and caregivers at their best so, in turn, they continue to be remembered for the best they make others feel. -- Dr Michelle Y Tytherleigh, C.Psychol., SFHEA, PGCE(LTHE), AFBPS. An indispensable resource for healthcare professionals. Informative, engaging, thoroughly researched and refreshingly practical. This book is an injection of hope that revitalises your sense of agency and leaves you feeling empowered. -- Sarah Gregg, Author of Find Your Flow & Choose Happy Ready for a tour of some of the best work in positive psychology? Read this book, and most important, use your zest and hope as you do the practical activities and curiously reflect on the questions. The more you personalize the material in each chapter, the more benefit you are likely to experience for your well-being and resilience! -- Ryan M. Niemiec, Psy.D., Bestselling author of The Power of Character Strengths, Character Strengths Interventions, and Mindfulness and Character Strengths; and Chief Science & Education Officer of the renown VIA Institute on Character
