During adverse life circumstances, it can be hard to stay
positive and find our balance; this is a situation that
requires resilience. Given that mental health problems
are associated with large direct costs for individuals
and society, it is pragmatic to explore what constitutes
resilience and find resources on how it can be enhanced.
When these resources are cultivated, they can improve a
person’s overall ability to effectively cope with stress and
hardship.

Given that mental health problems are associated with large direct costs for individuals and society, it is pragmatic to explore what constitutes resilience and find resources on how it can be enhanced.
