Event Description: Award-winning teacher and researcher Mark Holder studies the science of happiness.Medicine and psychology have traditionally focused on deficits and dysfunction (i.e., what is wrong with you and how do we fix it). Recently, science has placed an increased emphasis on positive well-being (i.e., what is right with you and how do we promote it). Dr. Mark Holder leads a research team investigating the science of positive psychology. With humor and knowledge, he will outline recent research findings related to how choices can contribute (and undermine) our happiness. Holder’s lecture on the Science of Happiness and Choices is among the activities of Thrive Week at UBC’s Okanagan campus. Thrive is a week of events encouraging the UBC community to invest in mental wellbeing. This is the second year that Thrive reaches out to the broader community to encourage dialogue about healthy lifestyle choices.
