Resilience.
How do you handle life’s curveballs and challenges? I know you have them. We all do!
This is such a personal topic for me because it’s a skill I had to learn as a small child and it’s served me amazingly well throughout my nearly 4 decades.
I’ll share more of my personal story in my forthcoming book but this powerful life skill is part of what I teach. In my recent Mind-Body Habit Training, the subject came up more than once.
A common misconception is that resilience is a trait. It’s not. You can learn and develop this essential skill at any point in your life. So guess what? YOU CAN DO IT!
I go into much more depth in my programs teaching this essential skill but wanted to share some key pointers and pictures, especially the cute tubing pic taken of my family today! 🙂
