MY PHILOSOPHY
Positive Psychology is defined as "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."
​
In my creative education, I leverage various wellness topics with art and multimedia, with the end goal of making those topics more accessible to the public.
​
"We aim to make wellness science more accessible, and to bridge between the ivory tower and the main street"
-Tal Ben Shahar, Harvard University.
Videos, photo-shoots, randomly walking and handing people compliments, or wellness research quotes. I love mixing art with education! Below are some creative projects which began fun and turned meaningful.
HERE'S is something extremely deep...
WHAT BEGAN AS FUN became an #EXPERIMENT in #interaction and #engagement. Creating a #SAFE space --> Being INTRIGUING --> Engaging --> Empowering. The kid feelt like she was PART OF the process and became less scared to INTERACT.
