What is it?
Resilience is not about coping. Sometimes all we can do is cope and where this is the case, people should be acknowledged and praised, but resilience is something more.Resilience is often referred to as your ability to bounce back, to recover, to “pick yourself up, dust your self off and start all over again!”
Wellbeing is considered to be a state on feeling comfortable, healthy or happy. When we build resilience and reframe our responses to challenging situations, our overall wellbeing can improve.
