Building Your Resilient Future Self - Stay Tuned & Add Your Name To The List
Since I’ve watched many talks about resilience and health this week, let me elaborate a little more about it.
"Psychologists define resilience as the process of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma, tragedy, threats, or significant sources of stress—such as family and relationship problems, serious health problems, or workplace and financial stressors. As much as resilience involves 'bouncing back' from these difficult experiences, it can also involve profound personal growth."
This definition is splattered all over the internet. Still, I wasn't able to find the actual source: "psychological resilience is the ability to mentally or emotionally cope with a crisis or to return to pre-crisis status quickly."
Merriam-Webster dictionary defines resilience as the ability to become strong, healthy, or successful again after something bad happens.
My definition of resilience is: to be able to grow out of a paradigm and change the person within to deal with challenges more effectively and objectively.
A psychologist will define it differently than a medical doctor, who'll define it differently than a nurse or a nutritionist would. All of the definitions will bring together that more complete human being that you're looking to be.
There isn't a right or wrong definition. You create the best description for you, and it's more likely that adding many definitions of resilience will bring higher awareness of what it actually is for you, individually.
You could say that resilience at work or at school is dependent on how resilient your health is. You've probably met or heard of people who need to take a leave of absence from work until their body creates the physical resilience they need to function well in other areas.
Allergies, autoimmune diseases, and other illnesses will create havoc and slow down resilience from forming in other areas. However, once the body becomes more resilient, that will help you create better strength in other areas of life. Makes sense? If not, read that again.
I'm looking forward to launching a program at the beginning of 2022, and I want to help you create physical, mental, and spiritual resilience. To be on the list to receive more info, go to this form, and please sign up. I'll provide you with more info on this new group program soon!
With love, respect, and consideration,
