<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>More and more, studies show that <i>resilience</i> is the cornerstone of mental health and wellness. In <i>The Resilience Workbook</i>, Glenn Schiraldi, author of <i>The</i><i>Self-Esteem Workbook</i>, helps readers foster the skills necessary to bounce back from setbacks big and small, and cultivate a growth mindset using positive psychology, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and skills for regulating stress.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>What is resilience, and how can you build it? In <i>The Resilience Workbook</i>, Glenn Schiraldi--author of <i>The Self-Esteem Workbook</i>--offers invaluable insight and outlines essential skills to help you bounce back from setbacks and cultivate a growth mindset.</b> <p/> Why do some people sail through life's storms, while others are knocked down? Resilience is the key. Resilience is the ability to recover from difficult experiences, such as death of loved one, job loss, serious illness, terrorist attacks, or even just daily stressors and challenges. Resilience is the strength of body, mind, and character that enables people to respond well to adversity. In short, resilience is the cornerstone of mental health. <p/> Combining evidence-based approaches including positive psychology, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and skills for regulating stress, <i>The Resilience Workbook</i> will show you how to bounce back and thrive in any difficult situation. You'll learn how to harness the power of your brain's natural neuroplasticity; manage strong, distressing emotions; and improve mood and overall well-being. You'll also discover powerful skills to help you <i>prevent</i> and recover from stress-related conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, anger, and substance abuse disorders. <p/> When the going gets tough, you need real, proven-effective skills to manage your stress and heal from setbacks. The comprehensive and practical exercises in this workbook will help you cultivate resilience, stay calm under pressure, and face all of life's challenges. <p/><i>This book has been selected as an </i>Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies Self-Help Book Recommendation<i>--an honor bestowed on outstanding self-help books that are consistent with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles and that incorporate scientifically tested strategies for overcoming mental health difficulties. Used alone or in conjunction with therapy, our books offer powerful tools readers can use to jump-start changes in their lives.</i><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"<i>The Resilience Workbook </i>is clearly the authoritative work in the field. Schiraldi methodically takes the reader through the three critical steps of resilience training: gaining a basic understanding of the critical issues of resilience, helping the reader determine his or her own level of resilience, then guiding the reader through step-by-step exercises to build and maintain a resilient mind. Clearly a seminal work in the field of resilience." <br> --<b>Steve O. Steff, PhD</b>, president and CEO of Crisis Care International</p><br><br><p>"A remarkably comprehensive, yet accessible and practical, treatise on resilience.
