Resilience is the ability to adapt and recover from adversity, stress, or trauma. It does not eliminate hardship but allows individuals to navigate difficulties more effectively. Resilient people often maintain a sense of perspective, optimism, and problem-solving ability, which prevents stress from overwhelming them. Developing resilience involves cultivating strong relationships, practicing self-care, and building coping skills such as mindfulness and emotional regulation. Therapy and support systems also help individuals strengthen resilience, enabling them to thrive even in challenging circumstances. Over time, resilience fosters confidence, stability, and long-term mental health.
