Copper Beech Institute: Weathering Life’s Storms - Cultivating Emotional Resilience

Resilience is our ability to adapt and respond to stressful situations and to adjust to the inevitable ups and downs of life's 10,000 joys and the 10,000 sorrows. It is a quality of being that allows us to better weather the storms that come our way — to bounce back, take a lickin' and keep on tickin', cope, and thrive even better than before!

Resilience is a skill that one can learn, cultivate, and develop. The latest studies in the science of the brain’s neuroplasticity show that practicing mindfulness we can develop new neural pathways that enhance resilience.
