Talking Teaching Podcast on Wellbeing Literacy

LISTEN NOW: Season 2 Episode 6 - Talking Teaching Podcast with Professor Lindsay Oades on Positive Psychology Learning the Skills and Capabilities for Wellbeing http://ow.ly/va4w50vkzKi 

Dean's Lecture 2018

Debates about wellbeing and happiness have occupied religious discourse and philosophical, political, medical and economic debate for centuries. However, the emergence of wellbeing science and positive psychology is relatively new. Can we change our wellbeing? If so, should we try? How do we do it? How do we help others to learn to thrive?

In his forward-looking presentation, Professor Oades invited the full house into the building of a new comprehensive mid-level theory of wellbeing – 'Thriveability Theory' – so desperately needed to fill the barren space between the high-level theory of philosophers and the sometimes non-reflective measurement by some empirical scientists. 

This event, presented by Professor Lindsay G Oades, was part of the Melbourne Graduate School of Education Dean's Lecture Series 2018. It is also scheduled as part of the Melbourne Graduate School of Education's 10 Year Anniversary

Wellbeing, Recovery and Mental Health, OUT NOW. See Cambridge University Press http://ow.ly/Mhm3308Vkp0

This book brings together two bodies of knowledge - wellbeing and recovery. Wellbeing and 'positive' approaches are increasingly influencing many areas of society. Recovery in mental illness has a growing empirical evidence base. For the first time, overlaps and cross-fertilisation opportunities between the two bodies of knowledge are identified. International experts present innovations taking place within the mental health system, which include wellbeing-informed new therapies, e-health approaches and peer-led recovery communities. State-of-the-art applications of wellbeing to the wider community are also described, across education, employment, parenting and city planning. This book will be of interest to anyone connected with the mental health system, especially people using and working in services, and clinical and administrators leaders, and those interested in using research from the mental health system in the wider community.

  • Explores the relevance of recovery research to the non-mental health community, making this of interest to a wide range of readers including public health specialists, community development workers, and policy-makers across all areas of government
  • Applies wellbeing research to mental health services with the expertise of editors and authors who are international leaders in their field
  • Brings together two bodies of knowledge, merging content that is interdisciplinary and will lead to scientific advances
