Embrace Wellbeing with PERMA

Embrace Wellbeing with PERMA 🌟✨

What if we viewed wellbeing as a skill set you can develop and refine, much like playing an instrument or cycling? 🚴‍♀️🎶

The PERMA model, crafted by positive psychologist Martin Seligman, breaks down wellbeing into five actionable pillars:

🌈 Positive Emotions: Find joy and contentment in your everyday moments.
🔥 Engagement: Immerse yourself in activities that captivate you.
💞 Relationships: Build meaningful connections that enrich your university experience.
🌍 Meaning: Pursue what truly motivates you, adding significance to every day.
🏆 Accomplishment: Celebrate all your wins, large or small, as steps towards success.

But how do you cultivate skills in these 5 areas to enhance your wellbeing?
