Extra-super nice guy Dr. Ryan Niemiec talks about character strengths, mindfulness and positive psychology. We don't always have to focus on pathology to feel better, we can build on our strengths and practice using what is "right" with us.Dr. Niemiec is the author of books like Mindfulness and Character Strengths, Positive Psychology at the Movies (1 & 2) and Movies and Mental Illness. We also talk about the Via Institute's free, online character strengths survey that anyone can take (we even talk about Dr. Finnerty's results in the episode).
