Building Resilience

Why Building Emotional resilience is vital

When you are faced with a negative situation, how do you respond? If you can navigate the situation without a lot of drama, then you have a good measure of emotional resilience.

If you blame other people for the problem, if you brood about the things you cannot control, if you see it as insurmountable, then you don’t.

However, you can.

You can build emotional resilience by enhancing a positive mindset and by shunning negativity.

While you learn how to build your resilience levels, you can also encourage the people around you to do the same.

This is particularly important if you’re raising children. Your levels of resilience will influence theirs. Don’t let them get caught up in the cycle of negative emotions that have weighed you down. It’s important to focus on the things you can control – otherwise, you will spiral out of control.

Adversity is a fact of life and to overcome it you need resilience. If you need to work on your resilience levels, there’s good news. It’s not a fixed trait, it’s something that you can increase through hard work and commitment.

Refer to the last blog post for the first 3 steps to developing more emotional resiliency.

Here are 4 more steps to increase your level of emotional resilience.

      • For comfort and fun!

• • • Develop your “coping skills/tools.
      • Learn a variety of stress relief “inner calm” tools
