Resilience, ACT & Martha Stewart
If I could pass one skill along to all of my clients, it would be resilience. Resilience is the most important trait a human being can have to sustain good mental health and successfully face life. One way to further promote your own resilience is to identify your values and commit to taking actions based on the things that matter to you, a key principle in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I also like to have an actual person to emulate when I’m trying to develop a new skill, so today I propose Martha Stewart as our resilience role model.
