A Resilient New Year!<\/p>\n

The New Year is a celebration of new beginnings. \u00a0This may be especially true as we welcome 2021, which we hope will be a resilient New Year. Resilience sustains us through adversity by cultivating practices that help us cope \u2026 and 2020 was nothing if not full of adversity.<\/p>\n

How can we practice resilience in the New Year? Psychologists define resilience as \u201cthe process of adapting well<\/em> in the face of adversity, trauma, tragedy, threats, or significant sources of stress\u2014such as family and relationship problems, serious health problems, or workplace and financial stressors.\u201d1<\/sup> This doesn\u2019t mean we deny reality but instead we develop the strong coping skills needed to deal with harsh realities. Fortunately, resilience is something we can cultivate and grow. These featured books offer helpful tips for your resiliency garden.<\/p>\n
