What is ‘adopting positivity?

I am Jane Jennison, the person behind Adopting Positivity.

My mission is to help you to be happier.

‘Adopting positivity’ encompasses my two passions - adoption, and positive psychology.

I will be publishing every month, applying the science of authentic happiness – Positive Psychology – to different areas of our lives.  

My key tenet, ‘other people matter’, is a quote from Chris Peterson, one of the  founders of Positive Psychology.  I will write about how we apply this to become empathetic leaders, how to curate a different way of working, how to be happier in our relationships with loved ones (building secure attachments and increasing resilience), and lessons from the pandemic.

I am a positive psychology coach and author.

I have spent over 20 years learning how to therapeutically parent and how to support children, with a special interest in adoption, attachment and resilience.

I consolidated this in a Master’s Degree in Applied Positive Psychology. I have a coaching qualification from the British School of Coaching, and have studied with the DDP network, learned Theraplay (TM) and explored Person Centered Art Therapy.

These are not quick fixes, these are strategies for authentic happiness and a more fulfilled and rewarding life.

So you won’t get ‘soundbites’ from me. Each month, I’ll post an in-depth discussion of a particular issue, with practical strategies and a bit of science.
