The Proof with Simon Hill | How to Measure Psychological Health: The Flourishing Scale Explained @TheProofWithSimonHill | Uploaded April 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Rich Roll and I discuss how to measure psychological well-being using the Flourishing Scale. This 8-question, clinically validated tool assesses factors like your purpose, relationships, optimism, and being of service to others. Drawing from my research, I heavily emphasise the importance of social ties, giving back, and avoiding loneliness to achieve happiness and longevity.
The real insight comes from using this scale to establish a baseline for one's psychological strengths before trying any interventions. The scale covers whether you feel your life is meaningful if you have supportive relationships, your engagement in activities, and a sense of self-respect.
It's a fascinating look at the science behind a holistic approach to gauging emotional well-being. Highly recommended for anyone interested in optimizing their mental fitness.
