ICRAVE Resilience

Resilience is the human ability to adapt in the face of tragedy, drama, adversity, hardship, and ongoing significant life stressors.  (American psychological association)

It used to be thought that some people have it and some don’t.  However, resilience is quite common.  We are all stronger than we give ourselves credit for.

Cultivating resilience

  • A commitment to find meaning in what is happening to you.
  • A belief in your capacity to create a positive outcome
  • The willingness to grow
  • The choice to laugh and be grateful
