An interesting read. I did not expect teaching self-management and pro-social behavior to ever be so controversial. https://t.co/nyrBzWrtqq

Flourishing is the opposite of languishing, that sense of stagnation and emptiness you may be feeling during the pandemic.

It’s the peak of well-being, or as one expert put it: “It’s living the good life.” https://t.co/4ACmENcHZG
