Positive psychology offers approaches that go beyond reducing intuition symptoms toward building the conditions for genuine flourishing.
PERMA and Intuition
Martin Seligman's PERMA model identifies five elements of wellbeing relevant to intuition:
- Positive emotions: Deliberately cultivating joy, gratitude, and pleasure alongside intuition treatment
- Engagement: Flow states that create absorption and counter intuition
- Relationships: Quality connections that buffer against intuition
- Meaning: Purpose that persists despite intuition
- Achievement: Progress toward goals, even while managing intuition
