My Garden and PERMA

My Garden shows your wellbeing as five growing plants, one for each PERMA dimension. Here is what P, E, R, M and A stand for and how the PERMA survey works.

My Garden is a visual reflection of your wellbeing. Plants grow across the PERMA dimensions as you keep up healthy activity, with a daily tip to guide you. It is the friendliest way to see how you are doing without reading a chart.

My Garden sits on the home screen, with a plant for each PERMA letter.

Open My Garden

Tap the My Garden tile on your home screen. Underneath the plants you will see the five letters — P E R M A — one beneath each plant.

Water it with a check-in

Your daily mood check-in waters your garden. Keep up your check-ins, habits and program tasks and the plants keep growing.

What PERMA means

PERMA is an established model of wellbeing made up of five dimensions:

  • P — Positive emotion: the good feelings in your day.
  • E — Engagement: being absorbed in what you are doing.
  • R — Relationships: your connections with other people.
  • M — Meaning: feeling part of something that matters.
  • A — Accomplishment: making progress and finishing things.

Rather than reducing wellbeing to one number, CHOYS tracks all five, so you can see where things are growing well and where a dimension has gone quiet.

The PERMA survey

The PERMA wellbeing survey is a science-based check-in across the dimensions of flourishing. Find it under Surveys & Polls, alongside any surveys and polls your company sends out.
