Refilling Your Resilience Tank (encore) [ep. 136]

In this episode, we're working on our element of Resilience. And even if you feel the opposite of resilient right now, we'll discuss more about how each of us is wired for resilience. We are naturally resilient and can uncover and build up this element--no matter what. This is also the first part of our "Roots of Resilience" series. The Roots of Resilience were laid out in one of Dr. Emmons book, "The Chemistry of Calm." We'll work through all the roots throughout our episodes on Resilience and Hope (nine episodes!). These roots are really the key aspects of resilience that are essential to be aware of and to strengthen. Stay with us for this full series to uncover and nourish your most rooted, resilient self.  About: The Joy Lab Podcast is an Ambie-nominated podcast that blends science and soul to help you cope better with stress, anxiety, and depression.
