La autentica felicidad / Authentic Happiness

Martin E.P. Seligman

En este libro, Seligman nos provee de las herramientas para identificar nuestros aspectos mas positivos y desarrollarlos, a fin de mejorar sensiblemente nuestra vida y las de los que nos rodean.

Basandose en una investigacion cientifica innovadora, Seligman muestra como la Psicologia Positiva esta alejando el paradigma de la profesion de su enfoque estrecho en patologia, victimologia y enfermedad mental a emociones positivas y salud mental. La felicidad, segun muestran los estudios, no es el resultado de buenos genes o suerte. Se puede cultivar identificando y fomentando rasgos que ya poseemos, incluyendo amabilidad, originalidad, humor, optimismo y generosidad. Seligman proporciona las herramientas que necesita para determinar sus rasgos o fortalezas mas positivas.

Luego explica como, al recurrir con frecuencia a estas fortalezas caracteristicas en todos los ambitos cruciales de la vida (salud, relaciones, carrera), no solo desarrollara amortiguadores naturales contra la desgracia y las emociones negativas, sino que tambien alcanzara niveles nuevos y sostenibles de autentica satisfaccion, satisfaccion y significado.
Por fin la psicologia se toma en serio el optimismo, la diversion y la felicidad.
Daniel Goleman, autor de La inteligencia emocional

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Using the New Positive Psychology to Realize Your Potential for Lasting Fulfillment

In this national bestseller – Martin Seligman’s most stimulating, persuasive book to date – the acclaimed author of Learned Optimism introduces yet another revolutionary idea. Drawing on groundbreaking scientific research, Seligman shows how Positive Psychology is shifting the profession’s paradigm away from its narrow-minded focus on pathology, victimology, and mental illness to positive emotion and mental health. Happiness, studies show, is not the result of good genes or luck. It can be cultivated by identifying and nurturing traits that we already possess – including kindness, originality, humor, optimism, and generosity.

Seligman provides the tools you need in order to ascertain your most positive traits or strengths. Then he explains how, by frequently calling upon these signature strengths in all the crucial realms of life – health, relationships, career – you will not only develop natural buffers against misfortune and negative emotion, but also achieve new and sustainable levels of authentic contentment, gratification, and meaning.
