“Resilience, or the ability to quickly recover and learn from setbacks, challenges, and adversity, is considered both a trait and a process. As a trait, resilience constitutes a combination of behaviors, thoughts, emotions and actions that aid in stress
management and encourage positive health outcomes. As a process, resilience represents the ability to recover quickly from stress or adversity. Resilience is known to safeguard against feeling overwhelmed due to stress. It also enforces mental stability and acts as a buffer to negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. To build resilience, it is important for each person to understand how they respond to and cope with major and minor stressors.”
