Flourish!

I really enjoy Red Magazine: they have a good mix of trashy stories, nice home/cooking ideas and inspirational reads that aren't too flouncy.

In this article 'flourish' the new school of happiness argues that true well being comes from having good relationships, finding real meaning in life and achieving your goals, they call flourishing 'happiness with staying power' well doesn't that sounds nice!

The 5 key pillars they talk about in order to flourish are
1) Positive emotions
2) Interest and engagement with life, for example enjoying trying new things
3) Positive relationships
4) That your life has meaning and purpose
5) That you have goals and are achieving them

Why not go through each one here readers, perhaps you could develop some of your pillars? I'm delighted goals were mentioned, I've got that one covered!
