Positive Ageing, as I define it, is about the potential for significant personal growth and living a deeply fulfilling and purposeful life in mid-to-late adulthood based on your values and life experiences. It's not about avoiding the challenges of Aging but about embracing them and finding ways to grow and thrive. You play a crucial role in shaping what positive Aging looks like for you, empowering you to take charge of your own journey and feel in control and confident about your future.

This master plan combines well-researched and evidence-based Positive Psychology and Solution-Focused Therapy. Positive Psychology focuses on the strengths and virtues that enable individuals and communities to thrive. At the same time, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is a short-term, goal-focused, evidence-based therapeutic approach that incorporates positive psychology principles and practices and helps clients change by constructing solutions rather than focusing on challenging situations, opening the door to unrealised opportunities!

This is my compelling reason for integrating SFBT with Positive Psychology, and I appreciate my pioneering attempts to add a third arm as a Positive Ageing Innovator.
