Resilient<\/em><\/h2>\nby Rick Hanson<\/h2>\n Resilient: How to Grow an Unshakable Core of Calm, Strength, and Happiness<\/em> by Rick Hanson is a must-read for anyone looking to improve their emotional well-being and build resilience in the face of life\u2019s challenges. Hansen has packed this book with practical tools and techniques for building emotional strength and resilience.<\/p>\n Hanson, a neuropsychologist and New York Times best-selling author, shares his expertise on how to develop emotional resilience and find inner peace and happiness. Helpfully, he draws on cutting-edge scientific research, as well as ancient wisdom, to provide practical tools and techniques for building emotional strength and resilience.<\/p>\n The book\u2019s key theme is the importance of developing a \u201cfelt sense\u201d of inner security and well-being. Our brains focus on negative experiences and threats which can lead to a sense of insecurity and vulnerability. Hanson teaches readers how to intentionally focus on positive experiences and cultivate a sense of inner safety, which will help to build an \u201cunshakable core\u201d of emotional resilience.<\/p>\n Hanson provides several practical techniques for developing this felt sense of inner security. These techniques include mindfulness practices, visualization exercises, and positive self-talk. The techniques are easy to integrate into daily life and can have a profound impact on our emotional well-being.<\/p>\n Neuroplasticity and Being Resilient<\/h3>\n The book also delves into neuroplasticity, the brain\u2019s ability to change and adapt in response to new experiences. Hanson explains how we can harness neuroplasticity to rewire our brains for greater emotional resilience and well-being. He provides specific strategies for \u201crewiring\u201d the brain such as cultivating gratitude, practicing self-compassion, and building positive relationships.<\/p>\n Throughout the book, Hanson includes real-life examples and case studies to illustrate the concepts he presents. This makes the book relatable and easy to understand. The author encourages readers to see challenges as opportunities for growth and development, rather than as obstacles to be overcome. With the right tools and mindset, we can not only survive, but thrive in the face of life\u2019s difficulties.<\/p>\n Conclusion<\/h3>\n In conclusion, Resilient<\/em>\u00a0by Rick Hanson is a must-read for anyone looking to build emotional resilience and find inner peace and happiness. It is well-written, easy to understand, and full of practical tools and techniques that can be applied to daily life. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to improve their emotional well-being and lead a more fulfilling life.<\/p>\n Related Links for Resilient<\/em><\/h3>\n Book on Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n Kindle e-book<\/a><\/p>\n Audible audio book<\/a><\/p>\n As an affiliate, I receive compensation if you purchase through this link.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Resilient by Rick Hanson Resilient: How to Grow an Unshakable Core of Calm, Strength, and Happiness by Rick Hanson is a must-read for anyone looking to improve their emotional well-being and build resilience in the face of life\u2019s challenges.
