After Rest Comes Enjoyment

What comes after rest?

In this episode of PTSD and Beyond, Dr. Deb Lindh explores a question we rarely ask: What if enjoyment isn't something we earn, but something we intentionally cultivate?

Drawing on the work of positive psychology pioneers Barbara Fredrickson, Martin Seligman, and Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, this episode explores the science behind positive emotions, flourishing, and the power of being fully present. Learn the difference between entertainment and enjoyment, why positive emotions are essential to well-being, and how allowing ourselves to experience enjoyment can become part of the healing process.

Healing isn't only about recovering from difficult experiences. It's also about rediscovering the moments that remind us what it means to be fully alive.
