The solutions I've mentioned so far are really great long term fixes, but here's a way to build
emotional resilience against all the unpleasant external influences you're dealing with in your life that is available to you right now through the use of two scientifically proven techniques: mindfulness and self - compassion.
In 2012, the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) recommended that in addition to a new curriculum, schools should be asked to deliver
against a wider framework which includes the development of key characteristics, including
resilience, curiosity, creativity, self - control, confidence, determination, ambition and
emotional intelligence.
Unfortunately, our best attempts to respond to or defend
against emotional hurts, stress and trauma can sometimes create internal roadblocks to
resilience, connection and vitality.
