Resilience building is an important part of stress management and whilst some people are naturally more resilient than others, it is a skill and it can be taught. Resilience is often defined as the process of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma, tragedy or significant distress. This ‘bouncing back’ from these difficult experiences not only empowers you to learn and grow but can often enable change in all areas of you life.
In therapy we can work on your resilience building skills;
Help you to make connections, help others
Accept change is part of living
Take decisive actions, be proactive
Nurture a positive view of yourself
Maintain a healthy outlook
Avoid seeing crisis as insurmountable problems
Move towards your goals
Look for opportunities for self discovery, find a purpose
Take care of yourself ( Diet, exercise, Sleep)
Keeps things in perspective
We can use a variety of coping skills, mindfulness, self-hypnosis, relaxation and ACT techniques to help build your resilience. Imagine not just coping with life’s stressors, instead thriving and looking at stressful events as challenges to be overcome. You cannot control all aspects of life’s challenges but we can work together to give you more skills to work on those you can change.
