Anika Kumar Vashishth

Positive Psychology Practitioner

Anika Kumar Vashishth is a Positive Psychology Practitioner whose work explores a question at the heart of wellbeing: what enables people not merely to function, but to flourish?

With a Master of Applied Positive Psychology from the University of Melbourne, certification in Positive Education, and over a decade of practitioner experience, Anika has worked with schools, educators, parents, children, and families to cultivate environments where wellbeing can thrive.

Grounded in positive psychology and neuroscience, her work spans one-to-one practice, group programmes, parent and educator workshops, mindfulness-based experiences, and wellbeing retreats. She is also a contributing co-author to a collective book, where she wrote about nervous system regulation and wellbeing.

Anika is the founder of I AM ENOUGH | FLOURISH, a community inspired by the philosophy of Purna—a Sanskrit concept of wholeness and completeness. It reflects a belief central to her work: rather than approaching ourselves as something to be fixed, we can learn to recognise and draw upon the strengths, capacities, and inner resources already within us.

Mindfulness is woven throughout her practice, supporting presence, awareness, and deeper connection with ourselves and others. Inspired by Christopher Peterson’s principle that “other people matter,” Anika also sees relationships and community as fundamental to flourishing.

Her work brings together science, practice, and the philosophy of Purna to make wellbeing meaningful in everyday life—creating conditions in which individuals, families, schools, and communities can move beyond simply functioning towards flourishing.
