Abstract

The article describes the main approaches to researching on personal psychological well-being, which is defined as an integral indicator of a person’s orientation to actualization of the main components of positive functioning, as well as of implementation of this orientation, and it is subjectively expressed in the sense of happiness, satisfaction with oneself and their own lives. The conclusion has been made that psychological well-being functions in dynamics and is a personal motivational parameter, a degree of which depends on realism, structuring, integrity of a system of personal attitudes and personal life prospects. Psychological well-being can be promoted with actualization of personal internal resources, which means understanding of own powers for full-fledged realization in the present and possibilities to develop self-determination in the future. Possible means restoring the disturbed balance in the system of self-acceptance and personal attitudes, in particular through positive psychotherapy and coaching, have been substantiated from the standpoint of a positive approach. The effectiveness of positive psychotherapy as a method is shown; it allows a person to mobilize human resources for positive decision-making, to form a positive outlook, contributing to personal growth.
