Live Deliberately: Be Happier, Healthier, and More Productive
Art by Luke Atkinson
“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.” — Henry David Thoreau
You don’t have to go to the woods to live deliberately, but you do have to make a choice.
Most people live passively. They do what they are told. They work hard all their lives, and wake up one day with no idea where they are or how they got there. The alternative is to choose your own path, and wake up every day excited about where you’re going.
This hands-on workshop will teach you, step-by-step, how to use research from the field of positive psychology to improve the quality of your daily life. You’ll leave with a strong sense of purpose and a personal action plan.
This class is presented in partnership with DC Public Library.
