An evidence-based, practical program to prevent stress by developing resilience
Why do some people get stressed while others stay resilient? According to research, the process of rumination-thinking over and over about events and attaching negative emotions to them-is what causes stress and not the events themselves. The antidote to rumination is resilience, the capacity to cope with challenges and thrive under adversity.
A critical professional and leadership skill, resilience can be learned and developed. Based on 30 years of lab research and controlled-trial case studies, this essential guide presents a proven step-by-step program to enhance individual and organizational performance.
