The LaB Press—home to the Journal of Positive Psychology, Agapology, and Spirituality—is dedicated to inspiring and equipping a new generation of thinkers, scholars, and practitioners from Afro-descendant and other marginalised communities worldwide. Our mission is to make knowledge both academically rigorous and practically accessible, promoting the embodiment of bliss—a state of holistic well-being—while empowering communities to spark a ripple effect of healing, resilience, and transformation.
We give particular priority to publishing work that advances the flourishing of Afro-descendant communities globally. We welcome interdisciplinary interventions that challenge conventional structures and cross institutional boundaries, drawing from fields such as political economy, critical race studies, decolonial thought, post-structuralism, and beyond. Contributors are expected to resonate with the journal’s ethos and vision, as set out in our manifesto.
Our commitment to open-access publishing ensures that this knowledge does not remain locked within academia but reaches wider audiences, enabling real-world application and global impact.
