Webinar Description:

Resilience is the ability to feel good about yourself in this very changing and chaotic world. Each person is like a rope bridge, and as the bridge swings back and forth, it rubs against rocks and gets worn down – life wears it down. It’s important to have a strong rope with a good coating on it, so that bridge doesn’t break. Resilience provides that coating.

Resilience can help every child be a star – in their own mind and out in the world. A resilient child will be less likely to choose to take drugs, choose to be a bully, or feel anxiety. Resilience creates a strong sense of self and enjoyment of self.

Resilient children are free to experience new things, and venture out and enjoy life. Resilience protects the child from damage, without isolating them from the world.

In this webinar we will be discussing the five points that help to build resilience.

1. Self Care

2. Ability to cheer oneself up

3. Pathways of appreciation and gratitude

4. Self – Value

5. Connections
