On this “Mindful Drinking Podcast,” host, and award-winning bartender, Derek Brown, delves into the fascinating intersection between bartending and positive psychology. Drawing on his recent studies, Derek explores how the principles of positive psychology—like the PERMA model (Positive emotions, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, and Accomplishment) of wellbeing, savoring, and flow—can enhance both personal well-being and the mindful drinking experience.
He reflects on how these concepts have deepened his understanding of happiness and fulfillment, particularly in the context of making and sharing cocktails, as well as personal insights on how the act of creating and serving drinks can be a form of service that contributes to our overall flourishing.
Whether you're a bartender, a cocktail enthusiast, or someone interested in the science of well-being, this episode offers valuable takeaways on how positive psychology can make both your life and your drinks more fulfilling.
