Intentional Resiliency: A Guided Pathway to a More Resilient Lifestyle
Session Description
Resiliency is not the absence of stress. This session elaborates on the importance of understanding ourselves as providers, as well as our patient population, by considering ones character traits, long-standing behaviors, how stress is processed and what resiliency methods are effective or ineffective based on the individual. We have established what we call "The Resiliency Toolbox" as a means of a guide to becoming more resilient, especially when going through difficult journeys. This toolbox is utilized with nearly all of our patients and has been taught as in-service material for fellow healthcare providers. The most important part of this toolbox is how the same educational material is applied to each individual, yet yielding unique, personalized paths to living more meaningful, resilient lives.
