Watch Nevo Burrell, Image Consultant and stylist, as she discusses different approaches to building resilience.
Resilience is an individual’s ability to maintain or restore relatively stable psychological and physical functioning when confronted with stressful life events and adversities.
Cancer and its after affects are associated with substantial distress that can cause long-lasting negative psychological outcomes. Learning how to build resilience can help reduce the risk of serious mental distress and help you to build a positive life after your own cancer experience.
Why is resilience important?
It helps us develop tools to protect us when we have over whelming experiences
It helps us to maintain balance in our lives during difficult or stressful periods
It can also protect us from the development of some mental health difficulties and issues
