This module discussed the core values and their associated strengths. For example, the strengths of appreciation of beauty, spirituality, and love of mankind are all under the umbrella of transcendence. Some other values include wisdom, bravery, and prudence. Identifying our signature strengths can help students see themselves in a different light, provide a purpose for learning, and challenge themselves to achieve their goals. Our strengths can also bolster us when things don't go as planned or when we are feeling down. One suggested exercise recommends closing the eyes, focus on breathing for 15 seconds, and then think about a strength that could be employed at that moment - for example creativity when writing a paper, or mental clarity when taking a test.
