Rising Strong: Navigating Life's Challenges with Resilience

In the face of life's inevitable challenges and setbacks, resilience emerges as the unwavering anchor that not only helps us weather the storms but empowers us to bounce back, learn, and thrive amidst adversity.

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, Optimism is “hopefulness and confidence about the future or the successful outcome of something; a tendency to take a favorable or hopeful view.” Hope is the “expectation of something desired; desire combined with expectation.”.

We tend to trust what goes on in our brains: our amygdala can be easily stimulated, we can then start to behave irrationally to our detriment and those we love or work with (The amygdala has one goal - look for threats, and if it sees one, put us into ‘fight, flight or freeze’ mode).

 A large part of response to a stimulus is emotional and as such it is easier for the amygdala to overwhelm the neocortex than the other way around. 

Helping our client to control their behavioural response rather than reacting to their emotional response is primordial so that the prefrontal cortex can find solutions or adequate answers to challenges we may encounter. 

To avoid losing our emotional balance, it is important to know the triggers that ignite an emotional hijack in our brain, and having a plan to take back control: we may not be able to control our emotions but we can control behaviours associated with that emotion, by understanding that emotions are raw data and we need to understand what they are telling us.
