These groups aim to help individuals build resilience and heal from trauma, which can impact nearly every aspect of life. Michael breaks down the origins of the resilience building blocks, tracing them back to the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) study by Kaiser Permanente. This study highlighted how early traumas can lead to various mental and physical health issues. The resilience skills developed in response to this study serve as protective factors, helping individuals mitigate the impacts of their past traumas.
The episode also explores how these building blocks have been transformed into a card deck, featuring 42 resilience skills. Michael explains how these tools can be particularly beneficial for parents looking to help their children overcome trauma. He shares personal anecdotes about the profound impact of the RISE groups, emphasising the importance of community support in recovery. If you're curious about how trauma-informed practices can foster resilience and improve mental health, this episode is a must-listen.
