Christopher Peterson created the VIA Character Strengths Survey to help people identify their top strengths. Studies on character strengths have found relationships between these and positive emotion, life satisfaction, wellbeing and health related behaviours. This is not just a pop psychology online test but one that has a good body of research behind it.

Try taking this free test and share your top 5 strengths if you like!

Have you heard of the 'Three Good Things' exercise? Also called the 'Three Blessings Exercise.'

This is a Positive Psychology technique shown to help us to increase our overall happiness and refocus our attention to the 'good things' rather than the 'bad things' a lot of us tend to focus our attention on.

It goes like this
"Every night for the next week, right before you go to bed, write down three things that went really well today. These things can be small and ordinary in importance. Think about why this good thing happened."

Give it a go and see what happens!

I am from Indonesia and saddened by the recent church bombings in Surabaya. These incidents can sometimes cause children to become distressed. Some may experience changes in their emotions and behaviours, even if they weren't directly affected. Hearing about threatening incidents can cause an impact.

There are useful ways that parents or loved ones can follow if they notice these in their child or teens in the following website. They also have useful information for adults who may be affected.

There is a lot you can do to help a child or teenager after a traumatic experience. Find advice, strategies and resources here. Phoenix Australia.

"Sorry, but..." is commonly said but is not really an apology. There is a few simple steps to saying to someone and showing them that we are truly sorry.

The four step :

1. Apologize.
2. Take responsibility.
3. How will you resolve this?
4. Ask for forgiveness.

Wisdom for parents

1. Apologize to children when you are wrong.
2. Do not assume you're smarter than a child simply because you're older.
3. Say thank you to children when they do something for you or others.
4. Admit when you've made a mistake and admit it openly to them.
5. Listen to children.
