Positive psychology interventions to strengthen
optimism, resilience and self-esteem:
Positive psychology interventions, or PPIs, are a set of scientific tools and
strategies that focus on increasing happiness, well-being, and positive cognitions
and emotions.
Types of Positive Psychology Interventions (PPIs):
1. Savoring PPIs
Savoring interventions focus on a particular experience and aim to enhance their
effects for maximizing happiness. The core principle of these interventions is to
encourage the person to grab every little aspect of experience – physical, sensory,
emotional, or social.
Due to its emphasis on wholesome perception, the savoring PPIs resemble
mindfulness strategies, but they are not entirely alike.
