What is emotional resilience: To be resilient means to be able to 'spring back' into shape after being deformed. To be emotionally resilient means to be able to spring back emotionally after suffering through difficult and stressful times in one's life. Stressed people experience a flood of powerful negative emotions which may include anger, anxiety, and depression. Some people remain trapped in these negative emotions long after the stressful events that have caused them have passed. Emotionally resilient people, on the other hand, are quickly able to bounce back to their normal emotional state.
This series likely will take some time to fully digest. Once digested, it will take more time to implement. The process helps us focus, which has value in all areas of life.
I hope you find the series helpful.

hello elan.
I have to agree with you about how emotional swings from positive to negative.
I have to say that at the moment I feel like 'Russia' in the 2nd world war - a country 'coiled back like a Spring', - ready to move forward, against the abusers.
I bounce, I rebound, I move, but how and where I move I guess is my choice. Having you guys helps in an isolated world I live in. I need guideence and direction, I find it here more than irl (irl = in real life).
I find help and solace in 'faith', my faith being grounded in what I know - science, physics, philosophy, psychology, math's, books, knowledge and ect ect ect ect.... .
I change the negative into positive when I can, and visa - versa.
As for my emotions, I do not know really. I respond to the future (because the now does not really exsist). I trust my past to guide my future in my 'Emotions', that's a good thing seeing as I have PC to help guide me now..
TY Elan...food for thought I need.
