As we learned in The Neuroscience of Resilience:  Response Flexibility, ”In order to cope with change, we have to be able to change how we cope.  The more flexible someone can be, not chaotic or floundering but no longer embedded in their neural cement, the more options they can identify, the more resilient they can be.”  As [...]

As we learned in The Neuroscience of Resilience:  Insight and Awareness, ”To cope with the mysterious and precarious unpredictability of life, we have to be able to expand our perspective from ‘why me?’ to ‘why not me?’”  To realize my pain is part of the pain of the human condition, and get on with the work of [...]

As we learned in The Neuroscience of Resilience:  Empathy, ”neuropsychologists see empathy as the integration of body-based information and emotional signals and cognitive thought and beliefs about another’s experience, making sense, making meaning, creating understanding, and then checking out the accuracy of that understanding through a verbal feedback loop.”  As we continue on in this series on [...]

As we learned in The Neuroscience of Resilience:  Attunement, an important factor of resilience is attunement - which stems from a sound resonance circuit developed via early, secure attachment experiences.  It allows us to have “felt sense” that others get out experience – and we get theirs.  As we continue on in this series on resilience, we [...]

As we looked at in The Neuroscience of Resilience:  Emotional Regulation, the key to staying resilient around stressful emotions is to stay regulated; not to allow our emotions to hijack us.  We are continuing to look at the following questions: Can we build up our own resilience?  How?  What does the brain and neuroscience have [...]
