A message from your Employee Assistance Program
Who among us has never experienced difficult periods in life? An integral part of our human existence involves making it through loneliness, sad or challenging times, crises and crossroads all in one piece with our humanity – and sanity – intact.
Amy Morin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and author of 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do (Harper Collins 2014.) Here she offers some simple, concrete self-talk messages that neuroscience has demonstrated can significantly improve your resilience in order to help you weather any storm coming over your horizon.
