After reading Positive Psychology 1 I have carefully read the general preface and the contents of the first and second chapters of Positive Psychology. Now I will summarize my reading experience in stages as follows:
The preface mainly talks about the dilemma of contemporary psychology and the diversified trend of psychology. This paper mainly analyzes the dilemma of modern psychology, the attribution of the dilemma, the change of scientific view and diversified modern psychology. When it comes to diversified modern psychology, it talks about the emergence and influence of positive psychology.
The first chapter mainly describes the emergence and development of positive psychology and its main viewpoints. The second chapter discusses the essence of positive psychology, mainly from its social background, philosophical basis and the differences and connections with traditional psychology. After reading these two chapters, I mainly gained three points.
First of all, positive psychology came into being in the United States at the end of the 20th century, and it is a force of contemporary psychology. Different from traditional psychology, positive psychology emphasizes the study of positive factors in psychological life, such as subjective well-being, virtue and strength, rather than focusing on the discussion of negative, obstacles and morbid psychology. Its main research includes three aspects: first, positive emotional experience, such as happiness, satisfaction, humor, pleasure, joy, hope, curiosity, modesty, caution and so on. And explore the mechanism and influence of these positive emotional experiences through various existing methods; Second, positive personality and personality traits, such as self-esteem, hard work, creativity, forgiveness, courage, persistence, enthusiasm, kindness, love, integrity, leadership, cooperation, self-control, gratitude and piety. To explore the formation process of these characteristics and qualities; The third is a positive social system, such as how a positive work system can promote a harmonious working environment and how a positive family relationship can promote personal growth.
Second, the positivity in positive psychology includes both explicit positivity and potential positivity. It is neither a kind of applause in the traditional sense, nor a good wish full of hope, nor a kind of self-deception. What is more important is to discover and study all kinds of positive forces (including explicit and potential) existing in society or social members, and to expand and cultivate these positive forces in social practice.
Third, positive psychology advocates looking at everyone with an open and appreciative eye, and emphasizes that psychology should pay attention to studying the positive power of every ordinary person.
The word positive in the book left a deep impression on me. He said that Professor Chen, a famous electronic expert, had a very beautiful tea set presented by a friend. Before his family moved to Hong Kong, he accidentally broke a teacup in this tea set while packing. At that time, many people present felt sorry for Professor Chen: such a beautiful and beloved tea set broke a cup, and there was no place to match it with the same model. How sad! Who knows that Professor Chen smiled frankly: "Good, I have another plate." Facing the same fact-breaking a cup, when you describe it as "missing a cup" and "adding a plate" respectively, your mentality is obviously different. The former is negative and the latter is positive. If we can see "extra plates" everywhere in our life, our life will be full of optimism and happiness. Happiness will increase. As teachers, in our contact with students, we often meet some unruly and naughty students with poor grades. If we only look at the problem with the theory of "one cup is missing", we will be very depressed and annoyed. And if we look at students from another angle with "one more dish", not only will we be happy, but your positive emotions will also be passed on to students, and their positive strength will also be excavated. Then the relationship between teachers and students will be more harmonious.
After reading two chapters, I can only say that I only got some simple experiences. The content of positive psychology is very rich and mysterious. I still need to continue to study hard, understand deeply and study repeatedly. I want to read through the book Positive Psychology. It will definitely be much deeper than it is now.
I have always felt that interest is a catalyst for learning. My knowledge of psychology benefits from my work in the psychological center. Today, my feelings about this subject are still profound. It is also because of my leisure time during the winter vacation that I listened to Positive Psychology, an online book with a large number of open online courses. On several places that cause me to sing in the process of learning.
Any discipline can be traced back to its source, and the changes in people's inner world can be found in people's evolution. The evolution of human beings from crawling to walking upright has led to the expansion of human vision. So now we feel more comfortable walking with our heads held high than walking with our heads bowed. The scientific basis is that the whole skeleton of human trunk is "S"-shaped. This is the result of human evolution, the evolution of human trunk from "L" to "S". The longest nerve in the human body is called vagus nerve. When we hold our heads high, the vagus nerve is relaxed, so we will feel happy and comfortable. The guiding significance of this to me personally is to have the image of standing and sitting. I found that many teenagers walk with their backs bent. In China's ancient etiquette culture, people were also required to hold their heads high. I wonder whether the servility of China people mentioned by Lu Xun has not been completely eliminated. The influence of modern powers on China's aggression has not been eliminated. As a new generation in the new century, we should hold our heads high. The strength of our motherland is not what it used to be, and we teenagers should show the atmosphere of a big country.
I have learned about the concept of psychological center, and most of them have "helping others to help themselves" and "helping others to be happy". According to the viewpoint of positive psychology, when we help others, the human brain secretes a substance. This substance can stimulate our body's pleasure and help us develop our thinking. I used to have doubts about the concept that "helping others means helping yourself, and helping others means happiness". Because why should we help others? There are also idioms such as "Every man for himself, the devil takes the hindmost" and "Nothing is not diligent, it is either rape or theft". I used to encourage myself to practice this idea with "only for my heart, with a clear conscience". However, "good intentions are not rewarded" often happens to me. So I also want to close myself, but I can't. Most girls want their boyfriends to be nice to her, which is understandable. Because no one can love the world on this issue. In fact, helping others is also targeted, just like everything in the world, there are conditions for establishment. We should take the initiative when others ask for help. I will sincerely help others when they need it.
Human evolution has led to the reduction of female pelvis, and the result is the premature birth of human babies. Most baby animals are born with certain abilities, such as running. However, human babies do not have the ability to protect themselves except for some basic abilities such as breastfeeding and defecation at birth. Therefore, women's sense of security is a very important criterion when choosing the other half. This sense of security is not only strong, but also spiritual and material.
Psychology is an extremely delicate and particularly useful subject. I will continue to study it and share my learning experience with you.
Reflections on "Positive Psychology" III. Leisure, holding a book and making a cup of tea is one of the most enjoyable activities in life. Recently, I visited Christopher, a famous British psychologist, in JD.COM Book City. Peterson's work Positive Psychology is full of meditation and insight. Let me tell you some of my feelings about positive psychology.
Whether at school or at work, a positive and optimistic attitude seems to be the most frequently mentioned topic. To put it simply, being positive is a mental state and behavior with strong initiative and subjective efforts. It often plays an active role and is recognized by many enterprises, institutions and individuals as an important part of cultural construction and personality cultivation.
Life can never be smooth sailing, and work may experience twists and turns. A positive and optimistic attitude is a necessary element for people to maintain their spirit of struggle and motivation in various situations. But how should we maintain a positive and healthy mental state? This may have to be discussed from our own mentality adjustment. In "Positive Psychology", I talked about how to adjust the positive attitude through happy and hearty emotional experience, which gave me great inspiration.
Pursuing pleasure and pleasure is human nature and instinct. Whether it is the basic needs of food, clothing, housing and transportation or higher spiritual and cultural behavior, it is essentially the pursuit of pleasant experience. Put it into practical work, if you can find the fun and enjoy it, you will definitely have a positive attitude. Some people may say that the same job is too boring, which is true. However, wouldn't it be a happy thing if we could find defects and deficiencies in our daily work, make efforts to improve and upgrade, and make new gains and achievements every day? In the moral and cultural system of our toll station in Yin Qing, the core value is "moral bearing the road to goodness", which is actually a positive concept.
To be virtuous, we should not only reach a certain level in skills and experience, but also reach a new height in moral standards, and inject moral concepts and behaviors into the management and service behavior of toll stations. As a toll supervisor, we should serve people with morality, let the team members work hard and let the drivers enjoy good service.
Stop at perfection, which is the direct requirement of a positive attitude. To stop at perfection can be understood as reaching a perfect destination. This shows that the level we have reached at present needs to be improved and improved. We should not be satisfied with the status quo, but strive to innovate and reach new heights. If I am to measure my work with perfect values, I think I should also make a breakthrough in team cohesion, team work efficiency, team service ability, team members' moral standards, professionalism and so on, so as to achieve the ultimate goal of perfection.
Positive psychology is not the guidance of individual emotional psychology, but the guidance of group learning and atmosphere creation. I know that only by thoroughly understanding the core ideas and propositions of positive psychology and creating a positive attitude as a working atmosphere can we set off a positive attitude learning upsurge in the whole class, toll stations and the whole industry.
In the future team work, I will gradually implement the relevant concepts of positive psychology to achieve a leap in the quality of team work.
Reflections on Positive Psychology 4 Recently, I borrowed a book about psychology from the library-Positive Psychology.
Before reading the book "Positive Psychology", I think psychological books often associate with mental illness, obstacles and other issues! After reading this book, I realized that psychology includes many other aspects, some of which are very reasonable in treating life and society, others and myself!
This book mainly describes the general situation of positive psychology and internalized motivation. The first is to introduce how people get positive experiences. The second is to guide people how to enhance this positive experience in order to form good personality characteristics. The third is how to apply it to the positive and humanized social system construction, so as to realize the harmonious development of society.
"Positive psychology", as its name implies, teaches people how to face life positively and how to get happiness and satisfaction. This is the nectar most needed by the increasingly desertified souls of all living things in modern society. Positive psychology advocates the positive orientation of psychological research, studies the positive psychological quality of human beings, pays attention to human health, happiness and development, and tries to interpret and practice psychology with new ideas and an open attitude. As Martin seligman, the founder of the positive psychology movement and a famous contemporary American psychologist, said, "Contemporary psychology is at a new historical turning point. Psychologists play an extremely important role and shoulder a new mission, that is, how to promote the development of individuals and society, help people move towards happiness, make their children grow up healthily, make their families happy, make their employees comfortable and satisfy the public."
After learning positive psychology, I mainly have the following experiences: First, know yourself. People always have to face all kinds of positive or negative emotions such as fear, sadness and anxiety. Therefore, we should actively face these negative emotions! Second, in terms of activities. Whether you are studying or living, you should be active and conscientious in participating in activities, so as to show that activities are both fun and meaningful. Third, attitude. Happiness depends on subjective consciousness in most cases. Different attitudes naturally lead to different moods. We should try to correct all kinds of emotional and behavioral problems in ourselves, change the wrong world outlook, values and outlook on life, work hard in the right direction, and have a good learning attitude. Fourth, do things. People often hope to accomplish more and more things in a shorter and shorter time, but ignore that "quantity will affect quality". People may sacrifice their happiness by taking part in too many activities. So be sure to take small steps, don't rush for success, and finish one thing after another! Fifth, physically. Body and mind need harmonious development, so insisting on exercise, adequate sleep and healthy eating habits is of great benefit to physical and mental health. Without health, you can't face life positively, so you should correct your bad living habits and study habits.
Therefore, studying and studying "positive psychology" is of great benefit to each of us. Only with a healthy mind can we have a truly healthy life, so it is necessary for each of us to study and study positive psychology.
Reflections on "Positive Psychology" 5 In today's 2 1 century, when China's socialist market economy is booming, the requirements of all walks of life for talent quality not only emphasize ideological and moral quality, cultural quality, but also pay more and more attention to people's psychological quality. "Positive psychology" is to teach people how to face life positively, how to get happiness and satisfaction, and how to establish high-quality personal life and social life.
The formation of positive psychological quality originates from students' main activities, and the most remarkable feature of positive psychological education lies in "activities". Students gain psychological experience in various activities and form positive psychological quality. According to the characteristics of young primary and secondary school students, this method is more suitable, so that students can take the initiative to care about their own psychological development and become their own masters.
It is often said that there are more only children now, which will gradually form a "I"-centered phenomenon among children. Some children don't care about the class and are selfish. Therefore, it is one of the important tasks of school education to cultivate children's habit of teamwork and learn to get along with others.
According to the characteristics of positive psychological education, I took a psychological activity class for students to help each other. In class, I designed an activity: let the children walk around the classroom blindfolded and then talk about their feelings. The children said, "I'm afraid of hitting the desk." The second time, I blindfolded the child, then asked a classmate to take him away, and then asked him to talk about his feelings. The child said, "I'm not so scared now than I was the first time, because my classmate took my hand and wouldn't bump into anything." In order to arouse students' consciousness, initiative and enthusiasm and make their psychological experience more profound, positive psychological education can take increasing positive psychological experience as the main means. I play the same game many times in practice, so that more children can experience the different feelings of these two ways. Finally, the students came to the same conclusion: students should help and care for each other, so that even if there are difficulties, they can overcome them quickly and avoid detours. This is the charm of teamwork and the purpose of my psychology class.
This class not only cultivates students' healthy psychology, but also understands that people are interrelated, and also makes students understand the virtue of helping and caring for others. It can be said that it cultivates students' positive psychological quality, helps students to form a correct outlook on life, world outlook and values, and forms a good moral quality.
Engage in teaching with the method of positive psychology, so that students can learn the methods and skills of interacting with people in life; Learning to face all kinds of setbacks in life correctly will enhance self-confidence, which will certainly cultivate students' positive attitude towards life.
Years of teaching experience tells us that for students, good moral quality is the basis of cultivating healthy psychology, and good psychological state is the premise of receiving ideological and moral education. They are interdependent, interactive and complementary, and their foothold is to shape students through educational activities, so that they can develop morally, intellectually, physically, aesthetically and laboriously.
In short, facing life with a positive attitude, feeling life and treating life rationally are manifestations of mental health.
