Resilience requires a mindful approach to our everyday activities so that we can monitor our own responses. We will be asking you to do this in each chapter so that you can practise self- compassion and resilience skills. As you work through the book your skills will become useful in practice and in meeting educational and professional deadlines or requirements. Developing resilience skills will also help you to identify your own needs when searching through literature and making reference to the literature that you have read. We will be exploring resilience as part of the learning outcomes in each of the following chapters so that you will become more aware of what skills you need to develop and increase your resilience skills.
