Remaining Resilient

Experts in positive psychology have long recognised that resilience is fundamental to good mental health and wellbeing and research consistently confirms that resilience is a capacity that is open to all to learn. Resilience is like a muscle – we need to use it to keep it strong, to prevent its power from diminishing. There is significant value in everyone investing time and energy into consciously developing resilience – as a strong protective factor for future mental and emotional health and wellbeing.
