Context

Resilience is the ability to bounce back from difficulty, to navigate challenges with awareness, intention, and skill. Resilience keeps us on track until we reach our goals, it allows us to deal with difficult situations, and it helps us to grow by encouraging us to look at the positives and to manage stress. Resilience develops naturally through connections to others, balanced self-care, and an open and engaged mind.
