Paternal listeners email the show regularly with requests to cover various topics on the show. Some are serious and some are silly, but one request just keeps coming: How do we teach our kids resilience? Dr. Dennis S. Charney is a leading expert in the study of resilience and has spent decades examining the causes of anxiety, fear and depression. He's also interviewed prisoners of war, victims of rape and assault, survivors of natural disasters, and frontline healthcare workers about the traits that have helped them overcome trauma, all in an effort to better understand how we can all learn to be more resilient. On this episode of Paternal, Dr. Charney discusses some of the most compelling factors to building resilience in yourself and your kids, including facing your fears, developing social groups, and establishing core values for you and your family. He also recounts a life-threatening experience that tested his own resilience, decades after living a charmed life studying the challenges of others. Dr. Charney is the co-author of Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life's Greatest Challenges.

In today's episode I have the distinct pleasure of RE-Introducing Carolyn Moor. Although she needs no introduction, Carolyn was the first to introduce me to the idea of Super Survivors. She is well known as the founder and director of the Modern Widows Club.Today, I have the honor of picking Carolyn's brain in terms of what made her a Super Survivor. We focus on 4 main areas:Choose Life: live for the future, not in the pastReach out: connect with other survivors—or in Carolyn's case create a forum of your own connectionsGet Moving: set goals and take actionGive Back: service and acts of kindness empower the survivor to be an asset rather than a victimCarolyn and I speak a lot about a book I referenced earlier in the season. -Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life's Greatest Challenges by Steven M. Southwick & Dennis S. Charney. I would be remiss if I did not mention Carolyn's book, Legendary windows Stories of Legacy by Carolyn Moor and the Modern Widows Club.

This episode is all about Super Survivors. A Super Survivor is an individual that faces tragedy head on, turns it on its head and makes use of the tragedy in a manner that helps others. I talk about a book, which I will refer to periodically this season---Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life's Greatest Challenges by Steven M. Southwick & Dennis S. Charney.On Page 230 we dive into what sets a Super Survivor apart from someone who is resilient alone.A Super Survivor:1. Faces Facts: accepts what has happened2. Chooses Life: lives for the future and not the past3. Reaches Out: connects with other survivors4. Gets Moving: set goals and takes actionI use myself as an example throughout this episode as I display many qualities described above. Super Survivors are outstanding individuals who have used the experience of a traumatic event(s) to reshape the future of someone else. How cool is that?

Since we are in mental awareness month, I thought about approaching this exact topic here on the channel. Normally I wouldn't approach such high and dense topics since I only feel like I generalize a lot, even if the information comes from literature, articles, reviews, institutions, and international organizations that deal with the issue. We explored what does Mental Health mean for us (as I asked you), some definitions of the most commonly used terms (such as anxiety, gaslighting), some trends in mental health awareness between 1993 and 2023 (30 years), and some applicable methods on how to make our day better if we feel down or in a bad mood. Before I go, here's the most common definition I could find about Mental health, as defined in the field of psychology: "Mental health refers to a person's emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It encompasses how individuals think, feel, and behave, and it influences how they handle stress, relate to others, and make choices." I hope this episodes lives up to the expectations! Thank you all for being understanding and empathic
I often speak of turning suffering into achievement in my logotherapy work - one way to do this is by becoming more RESILIENT. Resilience has become an important field of major study in recent years, and Dr. Steven Southwick has led the way with some outstanding research. However, the world lost a great contributor to the field of Resilience and Mental Health & Meaning in the past few weeks. Dr. Stephen Southwick was a brilliant researcher and author who passed away in April 2022 after a long-standing battle with cancer. I thought it would be an appropriate way to honor his memory to share with you from his book, Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life's Greatest Challenges. I hope you enjoy, and find ways to bring resilience training into your daily life.

What do emotionally resilient people have in common? This MindEspresso is about emotional resilience in adverse circumstances. Steven Southwick and Dennis Charney studied resilient people and distilled down the 10 characteristics of emotionally resilient people in their book Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life’s Greatest Challenges. I primarily work with corporate executives, but I also have a passion for personal leadership. I’ve started these Personal Leadership MindEspressos from people I’ve interviewed. Here is our podcast: https://lnkd.in/dxtN8PR **Critical Feedback encouraged. I’m going to try it for a couple of months to see if it’s useful. I've also started a small group for people to share their ideas around personal leadership. https://lnkd.in/ebvpHGt #resilience #mindsets
Episode 20. Resilience: Ten Factors June 15, 2020 Intro: Welcome to the podcast Coronavirus Crisis: Carpe Diem, where you and I rise up and embrace the possibilities and opportunities for spiritual and psychological growth in this time of crisis, all grounded in a Catholic worldview. We are going beyond mere resiliency, to rising up to the challenges of this pandemic and becoming even healthier in the natural and the spiritual realms than we were before. I'm clinical psychologist Peter Malinoski your host and guide, with Souls and Hearts at soulsandhearts.com. Thank you for being here with me. This is episode 20, where we are starting a multi-episode deep dive into resilience and discuss 10 elements that constitute resilience as defined by the general literature. Today we are going to define resilience and cover 10 primary resilience factors – from a secular perspective. This is episode 20 entitled Resilience: Ten Factors and it is released on June 15, 2020. In the next episodes were are going to get much more into how to develop greater resilience. In the next episode, we are also going to get into a Catholic understanding of resilience that incorporates what we know to be true by our faith. But for today, we are starting with how secular psychology defines resilience. We are looking at the elements that secular psychology states are the factors of resilience. We want a solid conceptual base, we are being catholic with a small c here, meaning universal. I'm drawing from many sources here, but there's one book that stands out, one book that I'm using in particular for this episode, because of how it's based in research and its simple, effective organization. It includes insights from neuroscience research, and it has great illustrative stories, so it's more than readable, it's engaging. The book is “Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life's Greatest Challenges by Steven Southwick and Dennis Charney. The book is now in its second edition and I like their structure and their emphasis on looking for research-based evidence, not just their personal experience. So what is resilience? What does secular psychology mean by resilience? Let's define resilience. It's definition time. [Cue sound effect]The American Psychological Association defines resilience as “the process of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma, tragedy, threats or significant sources of stress— such as family and relationship problems, serious health problems or workplace and financial stressors. It means "bouncing back" from difficult experiences.” Let's break that down. In the secular world, resilience is about adapting yourself to life's demands, it's about handling the challenges and curve balls that life throws at you with poise. It's about recovering previous levels. It's about getting up as many times as you are knocked down by dangers and misfortunes, it's about journeying on under the load of troubles and difficulties that life brings us. It's about not succumbing to failure, not collapsing under stress, not being destabilized by hardships and tough situations.The word resilience derives from the present participle of the Latin verb resilire, meaning "to jump back" or "to recoil." The concept of psychological resilience draws from physics. In physics, resilience is the ability of an elastic material (such as rubber) to absorb energy when it is deformed by some agent and release that energy as it springs back to its original shape. Imagine a racquetball flying back to the player, [cue sound] who strikes the ball with the racquet, squeezing the ball, flattening the rubber. The ball absorbs the energy of the swing and then in its resilience, it launches off the racquet, discharging all that energy as it flies away. What resilience is not: Misconceptions that people have. Being resilient does not mean you won't struggle, suffer or experience adversity. It also doesn't mean that hardships and challenges don't affect you. It's not stoicism and it's not being numb or nonreactive. It's not about not having needs. Resilience is adapting well, regaining your shape after you've been knocked hard, just like that racquetball springing back into shape. It's not a fixed trait – it is something that can be learned, practiced, improved. And that is what this series on resilience is all about – it's about helping you become more resilient in the face of this coronavirus crisis, so you can be loved and you can love God and others. So what are the 10 factors of resilience, according to Southwick and Charney? Let's just list them, and then we will go into more depth on each one. Remember, I am using their language here and keeping their focus on a general audience. In future episodes, we are going to ground the concept of resilience in a Catholic worldview and we are going to really tweak these. These will be in the show notes on our website, so you can find them there, no need to take notes. Really listen in, take these in. In future episodes in this sequence, we will get much more into how do you cultivate these factors, how do you bring them together. Right now, we are pursuing understanding. 1. Optimism: The Belief in a brighter future – that things will turn out well. With enough hard work, I will succeed. Can't be a blind optimism – not a naïve optimism. Looking on the bright side of life. Dwell on the positive. Glass half empty vs. half full. 2. Facing Fear: Not avoiding fear. Southwick and Charney are really talking about courage here. Not just giving into fear. Courage is not the absence of fear – it's overcoming fear, it's not letting fear master you. But it's not just the development of virtue. There are test techniques that help with this and we will get into those techniques. Facing fear with friends, colleagues and with spiritual support – general audience, but here is the spiritual entering in. 3. A Moral Compass, Ethics, and Altruism: Doing What is Right -- Southwick and Charney don't have much patience or acceptance for moral relativism. They advise having a moral compass and consulting it. Getting outside yourself, not being self-absorbed. Here they focus in on courage again. Having a backbone. They discuss how sometimes the choices are extremely difficult. 4. Religion and Spirituality: Drawing on Faith – really interesting in a book for general audience. Especially helpful in fearing death. – This is not the end. 5. Social Support -- can't be isolated, can't be alone. We need to reach out. Social support protects against physical and mental illness. Social neuroscience. 6. Role Models: We all need them. We can't raise ourselves. We need mentor, guides to help us find our way. Parents, other relatives, teachers, coaches, friends, colleagues, even children – our own or others. People that show us the way. Breaking out from the effects of negative role models, not imitating our parents or others close to us in their negative aspects. And becoming a resilient role model. 7. Training Physical Fitness and Strengthening – Here Southwick and Charney bring in the body. Really critical to do that. Benefits of physical training. 8. Brain Fitness: Challenge Your Mind and Heart -- gets into neuroscience – Brain plasticity. We can, through our internal and external behaviors, rewire our brains. Trauma therapy researchers have been focused on that for the last 20 years and more. 9. Cognitive and Emotional Flexibility – Accepting reality. Things as they are. Resonates with me. Reappraising. Gratitude. Reevaluating Failure. Seeing humor in situations. 10. Meaning Purpose and Growth. – Making small differences. Growing through and after traumanThat's a summary of the concepts provided by the best of the resilience literature ReviewIn the next episode, we're going to get into more examples of resilience and we will be grounding these factors of resilience in a Catholic worldview. We're going to baptize these factors, and bring in the beauty, the truth, and the power of our Faith in a really direct way. We'll be asking and answering the question of what is a Catholic resilience, fully informed by our Faith? What are the common misconceptions, false ideas and traps that Catholics fall into when they think about resilience. So stay tuned for that.

What can former POWs, special forces instructors, and resilient civilians teach us about weathering a historic resilience challenge like the COVID-19 pandemic? To find out, we spoke with Dennis Charney, MD, Anne and Joel Ehrenkranz Dean of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and President of Academic Affairs for the Mount Sinai Health System. Dr. Charney is helping lead Mount Sinai’s fight against the pandemic. But he’s also a world-leading expert on resilience. Dr. Charney is co-author of Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life’s Greatest Challenges, the culmination of almost 20 years of research. In this interview, he describes strategies for weathering the challenge of a lifetime and bouncing back stronger than before.COVID-19 Updates from the Mount Sinai Health System https://www.mountsinai.org/about/preparedness/coronavirusDonate to Mount Sinai's COVID-19 Responsehttps://www.mountsinai.org/about/preparedness/coronavirus/donations-supplies Dr. Charney's Ten-Step Prescription for Resilience (infographic)https://icahn.mssm.edu/files/ISMMS/Assets/About%20the%20School/Leadership/CRTV-3841-ICAHN_Charney_10StepPrescription_Resilience_Infographic_Nov_20.pdf
As I publish this (April 2020) the current Coronavirus pandemic has been a setback for all of us in various degrees, some worse than others. Hence, I would encourage you to listen to this episode and share with someone who could use it. My guest is Dr. Steven M. Southwick, who along with Dennis Charney are the co-authors of Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life's Greatest Challenges. The book summarizes research into the psychological, biological, and social impact of trauma, and it combines the latest scientific findings in the area of resilience drawing on two decades of work with trauma survivors “Resilient individuals resemble a twig with a fresh, green living core. When twisted out of shape, such a twig bends, but it does not break; instead, it springs back and continues growing” - George Vaillant Steven completed his psychiatry residency at Yale University School of Medicine. He is the Glenn H. Greenberg Professor of Psychiatry, PTSD and Resilience at Yale University Medical School and Yale Child Study Center. He is also the Medical Director of the Clinical Neuroscience of the Veterans Affairs National Center for PTSD. Steven has worked with a wide range of trauma survivors including combat veterans, civilian children and adults with PTSD, and very high functioning, former prisoners of war. There is a bit of irony in this episode based on the times we are living through in 2020. One, is my warning to those who were having an easy time of life that challenge would come so prepare now. The other is Steven's admonition for social connection. Harder now as we are all social distancing but even more important due to the stress many are going through. Hello Zoom. We also cover these topics on this episode His research into resilience and PTSD What led him to write the book How the brain may work against you in traumatic or challenging circumstances. Why and how each of us differ in our responses to stress The resilience factors Passive and active "toughening" Trauma and growth What survivors do to successfully cope with extreme circumstances. Active toughening and the importance of recovery Social pain and the importance of social networks. The “bleed” effect of exercise on emotion The power of “squads” What he asks someone who is suffering when they first come to him for help Much more here so please listen I write about all my shows, visit www.larryweeks.com

In the last episode I highlighted the work of Angela Duckworth in her New York Times bestseller Grit: The Power and Passion of Perseverance. Today, I'm going to focus on a different book called Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life's Greatest Challenges by Steven M. Southwick and Dennis S. Charney. That book, in my opinion, provides an answer to the following question: …
The science is in: We’re stronger together. Supportive social networks are linked to better health, protection against depression, and even a longer life. On this episode, multiple sclerosis patients Kate Milliken and Elizabeth Jones talk about how their tight-knit MS community has made them more resilient. Kate and Elizabeth met on MyCounterpane.com (now moodify.com), a once-thriving online community for people with chronic illness. But everybody can benefit from tight bonds with people who “get” them.

Most of us at some point in our lives will be struck by major traumas such as the sudden death of a loved one, a debilitating disease, assault, or a natural disaster. Resilience refers to the ability to 'bounce back' after encountering difficulty. This book provides a guide to building emotional, mental and physical resilience by presenting ten factors to help anyone become more resilient to life's challenges. Specific resilience factors such as facing fear, optimism, and social support are described through the experiences and personal reflections of highly resilient survivors. These survivors also describe real-life methods for practicing and benefiting from the resilience factors.Dr. Steven Southwick MD, Glenn H. Greenberg Professor of Psychiatry, PTSD and Resilience at Yale University Medical School and Yale Child Study Center, Deputy Director of the Clinical Neuroscience Diversion of the Veterans Affairs National Center for PTSD, and Adjunct Professor of Psychiatry, Mount Sinai School of Medicine.
