Synopsis

Resilience is something we all want, but how do we get it? This book offers a fresh perspective of the inner-workings of resilience. Dr. Den Houter was puzzled why one individual would surmount unbelievable challenges to lead a happy life, while another was stuck with just half the worries. From her successful clients, seven resilient qualities emerged and she became passionate about sharing this powerful message. Part One illustrates with case studies and with personal vignettes of famous personalities who have these resilient qualities. Part Two converts this awareness into action using a practical step-by-step approach. CBT, visualization, relaxation, grief recovery and exercises that foster his self-esteem are presented. The healing power of a thankfulness mindset is highlighted. This book is a must for therapists, pastors, psychologists, counselors, and social workers. You will find that Resilience is right at your fingertips.
