Building Resilience with Dr. Don Meichenbaum: A Practical Guide

I have come to appreciate that it's my job, if I'm going to help them, to make sure that I hear what one radio commentator, Paul Hoff, used to call the rest of the story.
How do some people bounce back from life's toughest challenges while others struggle? In this episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', Mary Woods chats with Dr. Don Meichenbaum to unpack the science of resilience. Dr. Meichenbaum, a leading expert in the field, dives into the fascinating research showing that while 75% of people can recover from trauma like combat, abuse, or natural disasters, about 25% face ongoing difficulties. What sets these groups apart? Dr.
Meichenbaum breaks it down into six key areas: physical, interpersonal, emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and spiritual resilience. He shares actionable strategies to strengthen each of these domains, offering hope and practical advice for anyone dealing with trauma. Whether you're interested in how social support boosts resilience or the role of positive emotions, this episode has something for you. Dr. Meichenbaum also highlights the impact of trauma on children's brain development and discusses ways to help them heal.
This conversation is packed with real-life examples from his clinical work, making it both informative and inspiring. If you're looking for a roadmap to resilience, this episode is a must-listen.
