Meaning of Life: Humanistic and
Positive Psychology

Humanism

experience
• eg. creativity, human potential
• Introspective
• Values unique person
(idiographic)
• Non-deterministic: advocates
free-will

, + Phenomenology:
Awareness Is Everything
◼ At the center of humanity

◼ Phenomenology is psychologically more important
than the world itself
◼ one’s conscious experience of the world; everything
a person hears, feels, and thinks

◼ The central insight (of humanistic psychology):
according to some, awareness is all that matters;
reality exists, but it has to be perceived to matter
◼ Basis of free will: the realization that only one’s
present experience matters; if the past is gone, the
future is not here yet, so we can CHOOSE what to
3 think, feel, and do
