Positivity And Relaxation Training
Overview
The Positivity And Relaxation Training (PART) program is a 9-week education program that teaches participants self-care techniques to promote health, happiness and generalized wellbeing. Similar in theme to the Institute’s copyrighted Stress Management and Resiliency Training (SMART) program, PART employs a variety of mind body techniques like meditation and mindfulness, physical activity and positive psychology; it also relies on creativity, humor and adaptive thinking. Where SMART is a clinical intervention, PART was designed for delivery by non-clinicians in community and corporate settings. Participants report the program has helped them develop skills to manage stress and cultivate a more positive outlook.
