Without resilience, it’s easy to become focused on the little things and neglect the important things Resilience is like a muscle and it needs to be used Familiar zones can be a good place to rest and recharge temporarily but you need to step outside them and meet the challenges You are the designer of your future, connect to your future self and how they handle challenges When things go wrong it’s actually a redirect in your life Let go of perfection and your views on failure to build resilience It’s vital and a non-negotiable to get enough sleep Breathing in triggers the sympathetic nervous system and you will feel more alert Breathing out long and deep ,triggers the parasympathetic nervous system and tells your brain you are safe Learn to work with your emotions and just experience them BEST MOMENTS ‘We can tap into the wonderful psychology of your lovely mind’ ‘Gratitude helps you to feel more positive ‘Fear begins to diminish and they begin to handle anxiety in a whole new confident way and that’s resilience’ VALUABLE RESOURCES Mindset Change Podcast Mindset Coaching and Therapy The Mindset Coach UK Instagram Mindset Change YouTube NUMIND WELLNESS OFFER - 20% DISCOUNT AVAILABLE WITH THIS CODE https://numindwellness.com/ use Code: PAUL20 The Gap and The Gain - Dr Benjamin Hardy & Dan Sullivan The Comfort Crisis - Michael Easter ABOUT THE HOST Paul Sheppard Paul is well known for his holistic therapy and coaching approach when working with anxiety, stress, confidence, and motivation, understanding, and treating the root causes surrounding issues He has a passion for understanding how the mind works and has been trained in many therapies.
