Wellbeing
A positive state of human being which
consists of pleasure or happiness and
lies in the actualization of human
potentials.
12

Wellbeing is a broad concept with many aspects…
13
What is Wellbeing
Wellbeing
Self-
confidence
Adjustment
Self-esteem
Level of
Aspiration
Self-
concept

Sat-Chit-Ananda – The ‘Indian’ Perspective
•Indian philosophical thought endorses the assumption that the
natural state of the human being is positive - “Sat-Chit-Ananda”
- meaning real internal bliss.
•The striving of a human being is towards actualization and sustenance of this state.
•Thus, the state of a human being is understood to be positive naturally.
14
What is Wellbeing

How does one lose Sat-Chit-Ananda?
If the natural human state is Wellbeing, then why and how does one lose it?
•Most of us are born healthy, and made sick as a result of personal misbehaviour and environmental conditions.
•As per the behavioural perspective, the abilities of an individual are optimally manifested only when there is appropriate
action and interaction with a congenial environment.
•Actions, in turn are initiated and directed by:
•Internal factors related to the individual’s personality and
•External factors such as reinforcements.
•Thus, the degree of Wellbeing in an individual is the consequence of the synergy between the personality and
environmental factors.
•Wellbeing is a natural state in human beings while variation of this state is only of degree. This basic assumption of
‘wellness’ as the natural state is the very cause for neglect of the ‘study of wellness’ for long.
15
What is Wellbeing

Wellbeing is a Complex Construct
Just as positive affect is not the opposite of negative affect, Wellbeing is not the absence of
mental illness (Ryan & Deci, 2001).
16
What is Wellbeing
Wellbeing
Life
Satisfaction
Presence of
Positive
Mood
Absence of
Negative
Mood
These two are not
mutually exclusive.

The elements of Social and Emotional Wellbeing influence each other. Each can
be promoted by the others.
Example:
•On the one hand, how well a child’s can regulate his/her emotional reactions
determines the quality of relationships with parents, siblings, and peers.

Communication Skills
•Communication: skills that permit the exchange of thoughts, wishes, and
feelings so necessary to developing and maintaining social relationships with
others (Bornstein, 2003).
•These skills are essential for:
•Adaptation to one’s environment,
•Maintenance of health,
•Participation in productive activities that will improve social and environmental interaction.
41
Aspects of Wellbeing >> Cognitive Wellbeing

Importance of Cognitive Wellbeing
•As cognitive elements develop and improve, overall Wellbeing will also
improve.
•So, cognitive elements are dependent upon and can be positively impacted
by the external influences to which an individual is exposed.
•To determine cognitive wellbeing it is important to pay attention to both:
•Objective measures of cognitive skills and
•Subjective evaluations of those same skills (Bornstein, 2003).

Healthy Values
and Goal
Attainment

1. Life Stages
•Today’s society is driven by competition leading to a lot of pressure on the
people.
•As a result individuals of all ages experience stress from one or the other
source.
•There are certain crucial stages in life which are more prone to
vulnerability. Example: late adolescence and young adulthood.
•Youth, especially students, require counselling for promoting Wellbeing, apart
from career guidance.
45
Factors Affecting Wellbeing

2. Personality Factors
•Research suggests that the level of Wellbeing is determined by stable
individual characteristics called personality traits.
•Cloninger (2006): personality traits of self-directedness, cooperativeness and self-
transcendence are each essential for Wellbeing.
•(Sharma, Sharma and Yadav, 2004): level of Wellbeing is determined by stable self-esteem
and general mental health.
•Hariharan (1995) listed three personality factors that affect Wellbeing:
•General disposition to anticipate
•Flexible coping style
•Judicious use of social support
46
Factors Affecting Wellbeing

3. Individual Differences
•Any activity can not help every person become happier.
•People have varying values, interests, strength and indications which
predispose them to benefit more from some activities than others.
•An act that makes one individual very happy and promotes Wellbeing might
not do so for another. This indicates the role of person-activity fit.
47
Factors Affecting Wellbeing

4. Stress (1/2)
•Environmental difficulties and stress are present universally.
•However, humans are not passive respondents to environmental stimuli so
Wellbeing is not determined solely by environmental factors such as
opportunities and reward.
•Coping and attainment of Wellbeing is dependant on an individual’s
appraisal of the situation vis-à-vis his/her autonomy, competence and
relatedness to handle the environment appropriately so as to restore the
homeostasis and sustain the state of Wellbeing.
48
Factors Affecting Wellbeing

4. Stress (2/2): The Vulnerable and Invulnerable
Invulnerable or resilient:
those who sustain and
promote wellbeing by
functioning optimally
despite multiple
environmental adversities.
Vulnerable: those who
become dysfunctional or
manifest inadequate
functioning owing to the
disadvantaged
environmental conditions.

Factors Affecting Wellbeing

Absent
Some interesting outcomes
that interest researchers
include:
-Presence of Wellbeing in
negative environmental
conditions, where the
invulnerable are located.
-Absence of Wellbeing
despite positive
environmental conditions
i.e., Laidback.

5. Healthy Values and Goal Attainment
•Values, motives and goals are inherently associated with wellbeing and can
have a negative or positive impact.
•There are two kinds of motives:
50
Factors Affecting Wellbeing
Wellbeing also results from psychological need satisfaction.
Intrinsic Motives
•Originate from basic psychological
needs satisfaction
•Reflect psychological growth
•Essential to wellbeing
Extrinsic Motives
•Originate from the need to obtain
other people’s approval, admiration,
and praise.
•Reflect the need to avoid social
punishment
•Do not promote wellbeing

Cognitive Restructuring
A technique in CBT with the goal of
identifying irrational or unhealthy thoughts
and modifying them to present a more
accurate view of the situation.
57

Cognitive Distortion requires Cognitive Restructuring
58
Strategies to Promote Wellbeing >> Cognitive Restructuring
Stress leads to
Cognitive Distortion
•All kinds of stressors
exist in the
environment.
•However, it is not the
circumstances per se
but their
interpretation that
leads to stress.
•When the
interpretation of the
stress is severely
exaggerated, it is called
Cognitive Distortion.
Cognitive Restructuring
leads to Wellbeing
•Cognitive
restructuring changes
a perception from
negative to neutral or
positive, thus, making
it less stressful.
•By altering how we
look at the problem we
can feel better.

Promoting Wellbeing using Cognitive Restructuring
How can Wellbeing be promoted?
•Assume responsibility for your own
thoughts
•Face the reality of the situation
•Resolve the causes of stress
•Create/adopt a positive frame of mind
•Fine tune your expectations
•Handle the toxic/negative thoughts
•Use positive affirmations
•Look at the positive aspects of situations
59

Focus of Cognitive Restructuring
1.Positive self-talk
2.Coping Skills
3.Learned Optimism Training
4.Creative Problem Solving Skills
5.Hope Therapy
6.Communication Skills

1. Positive Self-Talk
•Much of what an individual feels is caused by what
the individual says to himself/ herself.
•80% or more of the internal dialogue which goes on
within ourselves all day long is with little awareness.
(Davidson, 1988)
•This is because self-talk is automatic and is carried out repeatedly.
•An individual however can make conscious efforts to focus on
positive self-talk.
60
Strategies to Promote Wellbeing >> Cognitive Restructuring
Self-Talk A coping technique that involves consciously replacing negative self-talk with positive statements.
To promote wellbeing, one must
focus on positive statements
during self-talk:
-I am capable
-I am doing my best
-I can achieve my goal
-I choose to be happy.

2. Coping Skills
•Confrontive Coping is a technique that leads to greater
Wellbeing.
•The strategy calls for:
•Perseverance
•Conviction
•Continued Apprehension of Adversities
•Preparedness to face them
61

the problem - by winning the situation through logical arguments, aggressive encounters or
convincing methods.
Effective Coping may involve

-Social or formal support

3. Learned Optimism Training
62
Strategies to Promote Wellbeing >> Cognitive Restructuring
•Learned optimism training is designed to transform negative thinking into
positive cognitive processes that promote flexible thought and resiliency.
•In learned optimism, intervention processes:
•Have three components of explanatory style:
•Permanence
•Pervasiveness
•Personalization
•Are modified with cognitive techniques so that people may respond in a healthier manner to both
positive and negative outcomes of daily events. (Seligman, 1999)

Promoting Wellbeing using Social Support
•Performing an activity as a group or with the support of a close, with
others, it is likely to promote greater and more sustained Wellbeing than
doing the activities alone.
•Wellbeing can be promoted by (Henderson & Brown, 1988) :
•Building a good social-support network
•Nurturing relationships
•Judicious use of social support network
•But, how does Social Support promote individual wellbeing?
76
Strategies to Promote Wellbeing >> Social Support

How does Social Support promote wellbeing?
Social support promotes Wellbeing as it (Parasuraman et al, 1992):
•satisfies the individual’s need for affiliation
•enhances self-esteem and self-efficacy
•reduces environmental demand or pressure that generate stress
•enhances recipients’ cognitive and behavioural coping strategies.
Instead of having direct effects on stress or health, social support modifies the
relationship between stress and health and protects the individual from
negative consequences of stress (Williams & House, 1985).

Strategies to Promote Wellbeing >> Humour
•Take your work seriously, take yourself lightly. You are more than your work. A bad day at work,
shouldn’t affect your self-esteem.
•You are a whole person with many aspects and talents, not just a spouse or a professional.
Learn not to take life too seriously
•Humorous events are all around us. Life is full of ironies, incongruencies and just plain funny stuff.
•One’s frame of mind is either receptive to these, or simply dismisses them.
Find one humorous thing a day
•Creativity and humour are virtually inseparable.
•Play with children. Kids have wonderful imaginations. Get inspired!
Work to improve your imagination and creativity
•Buy a notebook and fill it with anything that puts a smile on your face and makes you feel good inside -
cartoons, favourite jokes, letters, funny photographs with your captions attached, love poems, and
personal items (birthday cards, postcards, photographs, etc.).
Start a tickler notebook

Key Points to Consider
•Musical selection: Music that is most conducive to relaxation and helps
return to homeostasis should be selected.
•The music should preferably have a slow tempo.
•The selection should be enjoyable rather that disturbing.
•Listening environment: should be comfortable.
•Postures and cognition: Recline in a comfortable position with eyes closed to
minimize distractions.

Promoting Wellbeing using Exercise
The psychological benefits of regular exercise, and the intuitive holistic link between
physical exercise and well-being, are well documented:
•Evidence supports existence of a strong relationship between physical activity and
well-being. Physical activity impacts well-being by:
•preventing mental health problems and
•improving the quality of life for people with mental health problems. (Fox, Boutcher, Faulkner, & Biddle, 2000).
•Any exercise has a de-stressing ability because it burns up the extra energy.
•Exercise increases blood circulation and this improved flow of blood to the brain provides additional supplies
of oxygen and sugars which are essential in helping the individual function properly when stressed.
•Even techniques are walking and simple aerobics are highly desirable.
89
Strategies to Promote Wellbeing >> Exercise and Nutrition

Promoting Wellbeing using Nutrition
Well-being is promoted by:
•Eating a well-balanced diet.
•Eating a good breakfast
•Spacing meals evenly throughout the day.
•Avoiding or minimizing the consumption of caffeine and sugar.
•Eating a diet that provides adequate levels of vitamins and minerals.

Role of Parents in Promoting Child & Adolescent Wellbeing
•Parents are important influences on children. Compared to the west, parental role
in the life of the Indian adolescent is much greater and the influence exerted on the
wards even stronger.
•Apart from the developmental changes that occur at an accelerating speed, the academic pressures exerted on
them by their parents beset adolescents to even greater pressure.
•Though parental pressure can be positive, most adolescents perceive it as negative. The adolescent perceives this
pressure both as highly threatening and challenging, thereby experiencing intolerable stress.
•They thus, face additional adjustment problems as well.
•Unable to cope with such stressful situations, the adolescent may get frustrated and irritated.
•Parents play a crucial role in promoting well-being in their children : help the child
focus on positive expectations and believe that their efforts would bring them great
success, as negative expectations would increase anxiety and stress.
93
Promoting Wellbeing in Different Populations >> Children and Adolescents

Role of Teachers in Promoting Child & Adolescent Wellbeing
•Positive beliefs about our self are important to promote and sustain
wellbeing.
•For some children it may be essential to reinforce feelings of self-worth externally.
•This, may induce and strengthen positive feelings. This helps temporarily laidback children.
•Some children may have restricted social network. Teachers can expose
them to a wider variety of interaction with varied groups in a secure
environment, where they would enjoy the interaction and, thereby, develop a
more positive sense of self.
•Planning and designing games demanding high alertness and actions of reflex
and swift-solving skills may help in enhancing their state of anticipation of
adversity and preparedness of encountering the same.

Work Environment and Wellbeing
•Baldry et al (1997) argued that the social processes which generate
occupational ill-heath can be understood through examining the degree
of ‘fit’ between three interrelated components of any work system:
•Mismatch of these components may result in strain which may be experienced by the worker as
physical discomfort or actual ill-health.
•A fit between all the interrelated components of the work system would promote well -being.
