Resumen

Se describe el modelo de bienestar del programa EBC (Entrenamiento en Bienestar basado en prácticas Contemplativas) fundamentado en la acción virtuosa y en la felicidad ego-desprendida, donde el bienestar subjetivo es un subproducto y un reforzador derivado de las propias acciones virtuosas. Posteriormente, se describe y se analizan los mecanismos de acción implícitos en la meditación en la esperanza, entendida como una meditación estratégica en el desarrollo del programa EBC. Para finalizar, se proponen varias conclusiones al respecto.
