Summary
In this episode, Linda Graham explains the neuroscience behind resilience and shares some of her teachings on how to strengthen resilience. As she immersed herself in her work on resilience, she realized that all emotions, deemed good or bad, were catalysts to action. She also came to realize the transformative power of mindful compassion towards these emotions. By shifting the brain's functioning to a more receptive, open, and allowing state, we can begin to foster a growth mindset that leads to increased resilience.
In this episode, you'll be able to:
- Discover tactics to build resilience and learn to navigate life's trials with less stress and more grace
- Uncover the power attached to perception and attitude to cultivate a growth mindset
- Embrace positive emotions and embrace how this practice rewires your mind for resilience through neuroplasticity
- Discover the complex relationship between early attachments and resilience strength
- Learn to implement resilience-building tools in your everyday life
