This book on the new paradigm of existential positive psychology
(PP2.0) or second-wave positive psychology focusses on the
importance of transcending or transforming negative experiences and
emotions to achieve durable flourishing. The book offers exciting
new concepts and skills in the practice of counselling psychology.
Positive psychology is evolving due to changing times and
circumstances. PP2.0 opens new vistas for research and
interventions in counselling psychology and positive psychology.
Instead of relying only on the positives, it posits the importance
of navigating an optimal balance between positives and negatives in
each context. It emphasizes the importance of inner peace, balance,
and harmony rather than the pursuit of happiness or positive
emotions. More importantly, PP2.0 is based on meeting the basic
human needs for 1) the need to be liberated from the suffering and
human bondage, 2) the hope of achieving a meaningful future, 3) the
need to relate to others in a compassionate and authentic way so
that people can experience genuine kindness and love, and 4) the
deep-seated spiritual need for a sense of oneness with a Higher
Power or nature. This volume explores ways to help individuals to
be liberated from their inherent limitations and, at the same time,
empower them to achieve their highest aspirations. With an updated
Introduction, this book is the ideal companion for any student or
practitioner looking for an insightful overview of positive
psychology including humanistic psychology, existential positive
psychology as well as counselling psychology. The chapters in this
book were originally published as a special issue of Counselling
Psychology Quarterly.
