Here at the MMC we have been talking about the four skill-based components of well-being that are supported by research. 

                These are Resilience, Positive Outlook, Mindful Attention, and Generosity. 

Each week we have been taking a deeper dive into an individual component.  

“Well-being is fundamentally no different than learning to play the cello.”

Basically: You can get better at well-being. It’s a skill you can train for!
