We all need resilience to help us thrive and overcome stress, especially in difficult times. As this special event, therapist and resilience expert Anjuli Sherin helped us develop our inner resilience as an 'inoculation' against stress. Our ability to thrive is often undermined by previous trauma. Anjuli shared how we can learn to withstand and heal from the effects of life’s challenges and previous traumas with greater strength, compassion and wisdom. Resilience starts with believing that things can improve and taking small steps to get there. Anjuli helped us begin to heal, by reconnecting to the wellspring of joy, love and resilience we already have inside. View here.h |
