Le foyer n'est pas un lieu, c'est une pratique

Patricia Friberg, praticienne et chercheuse en psychologie positive, évoque la construction d'un sentiment d'appartenance au fil de déménagements répétés aux États-Unis, en Suisse et dans d'autres pays, y compris une évacuation liée à des feux de forêt. S'appuyant sur des recherches et sur son expérience personnelle, elle affirme que le foyer se crée par la pratique plutôt qu'il ne dépend d'un lieu. L'intervention a été donnée lors de TEDxColumbiana.

• Quatre pratiques pour retrouver un sentiment d'appartenance
• Expérience personnelle de déménagements nationaux et internationaux
• Approche fondée sur la psychologie positive

What if home isn't a place—but a practice? After multiple cross-country and international moves, evacuating wildfires, and rebuilding belonging again and again, Patricia Friberg shares four practices—rooted in research and lived experience—that transform any transition into a place to call home: find your people, celebrate customs old and new, appreciate the local environment, and contribute to your community. Change is constant—but we can grow through it.
