Podcast #28: Building Resilience with Positive Psychology

This week’s podcast explores resilience through the lens of positive psychology. It emphasizes strengthening inner good rather than solely fixing the "bad" and highlights optimism and gratitude as key components of resilience, providing practical advice like reframing negative thoughts and creating contingency plans. I outline eight areas to cultivate resilience, including self-awareness, self-regulation, connection, and leveraging personal strengths. I talk about how building resilience involves paying attention to our inner states, regulating emotions, and connecting with others and our communities. I also provide actionable insights for listeners to foster resilience in their daily lives.Loved this episode?
