Welcome back to another episode of the Living with Joy Renewed podcast! This episode is the first in a series all about "resilience" — not the grit-your-teeth-and-bear-it kind of strength, but a deep, psychological resilience that comes from learning to deal with triggers and developing effective coping mechanisms. We explore how resilience can play a significant role in the healing process of our children. You'll learn how we can respond to our children's adverse behavior in a way that doesn't just limit further trauma, but begins healing the effects of trauma. You'll also learn the seven key factors in navigating trauma: Positive relationships and social supports. Personal control and empowerment. The ability to experience more positive emotions while controlling the negative ones. Using cognitive skills such as problem solving and acceptance. Being able to control life pursuits and personal values. The quality of social, emotional, and financial resources. The ability to confront adversity without avoiding or denying the feelings and emotions that come from them. In the upcoming episodes, we'll dive deeper into these factors, offering you practical strategies to help your children build resilience.…
