Do you ever feel stretched to the breaking point? We’ve all felt that way … we are built to STRETCH to respond to the demands of our lives, and we’re stretched to various degrees every day. How is that we’re able to keep on stretching? And what do we do when we feel that we really are at a breaking point?
RESILIENCE is like our “response rubber band.” It is what helps us cope with daily life and all its stressors, even when we’re dealing with failure, loss, negativity, abuse, and illness. When we have had experiences in our lives that make us resilient, we have a very stretchy rubber band that allows us to respond positively to deal with stress … and bounce back to relax again.
