The Realization of the Spirit of Positive Psychology Through Natural Environments: Positive Experience

Korean Journal of Psychology: General / Korean Journal of Psychology: General, (P)1229-067X; (E)2734-1127
2014, v.33 no.1, pp.51-79

Abstract

This overview article is based on the premise that we should think over the concrete way to realize the spirit of positive psychology. Among the three main topics of positive psychology, this article focuses on positive experiences and pays attention to the influence of natural environments on facilitating positive experience. This review article is to show that we can realize the aim of positive psychology by positive experiences through natural environments. First, this review demonstrated that the representative broaden-and-build theory of positive emotions have something in common with the attention restoration theory, which is the representative theory about the restorative effect of natural environments. Then, it was shown by discussing some empirical researches that the undoing effect, the principal concept of broaden-and-build theory, is available through natural environments. Finally, several cases were examined to show that the contact with natural environments allows us to have positive experiences such as infusing with positive meaning, savoring, mindfulness, flow, and transcendent experience. From this review, the conclusion was drawn that future research should focus on everyday nature to apply the relationship between natural environments and positive experiences to real life.
