Eudaimonia is an ancient Greek concept often translated as "flourishing," "living well," or "human flourishing," representing the highest human good and a life of deep fulfillment rather than mere fleeting pleasure. It is achieved by practicing virtue (arete), using reason, and fulfilling one's potential throughout a lifetime, according to Aristotelian ethics.

At its core are the pillars of positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning, and accomplishment.

Hey wait a second, did Seligman rip off Aristotle?

So PERMA is really just 𝜋ερμα AKA “Eudaimonia”

It is derived from eu ("good," "well," or "true") and daimon ("spirit," "inner guide," or "divine power")
