Om Sensei Self Development Mental Health Chronicles Series - Building Resilience and Coping Strategies
What Resilience Is
Resilience is a coping skill. It is the practical ability to recover quickly from difficulties. It's like having a mental and emotional toolkit that helps you bounce back from setbacks. For instance, if you lose your job, resilience helps you cope with the initial shock and stress and then motivates you to update your resume and start applying for new positions, rather than getting stuck in despair.
It's about facing life's problems head-on, rather than avoiding them. Imagine you leak in your roof. Resilience is grabbing a bucket to catch the water, calling a repair service, and perhaps figuring out a temporary fix, instead of just hoping the leak will stop on its own.
