Covid tested us: resilience carried us
Dr Sinead Lynch & Dr Sinead Mulhern
There is more than one technique suggested by psychologists to build resilience but the
number one tip is social support. Healing happens in the connection with another human
being. Resilience is not about going it alone; social support is key!
Seven ways to build resilience
1. Resilience is not about going it alone; social support is key.
2. Don’t get disheartened – any problem can be overcome.
3. Accept that change is part of living.
4. Take action – Move toward your goals.
5. Remember a difficult time you got through before – Be inspired.
6. See opportunities for growth in every crisis.
7. Don’t underestimate the power of being kind to yourself.
