May 20th, cloudy Sunday afternoon. 12 beautiful women, from 20 to 70 years old, meet in a beauty salon in Porto, Portugal. The intention? Mixing the knowledge from Positive Psychology with the light taste of little pieces of chocolate.
A wonderful way that Catarina and Teresa, the owners of the beauty salon had to "give their clients a special gift". Not vouchers for free brushing or an half an hour massage, but a practical 3,5 hours workshop about optimism in life! Something that could give these 12 cheerful women a boost to their daily lives, a space to think about themselves and an opportunity to hear more about the happy side of life.
No hurries, no strict agenda. All the time available to sit in the improvised training room (among hairdryers, brushes and massage oils and magazines), and hear about the "intelligent optimism", creativity, gratitude, perspective and savouring...Little pieces of chocolate!
Sharing life stories, finding and focusing on their strengths and debating points of view, with music, laughs and all the attention from who doesn't get tired and keeps a smile despite all. Brave women in action.
A great opportunity for THINKING-BIG to take the basic knowledge from books and articles about Positive Psychology to the most practical environment , inspiring and getting inspired by the truth of life.
"Life is not simple", they say, "but it's worth taking it with a Sunday great laugh!"
