In her clear, well-researched style, filled with user-friendly exercises and practices, Linda Graham reveals how we can train our brains, our bodies, and our hearts to access our intuitive wisdom not only to get through the tough times but to grow and become more conscious in the process. A real gem!”
“This is a wonderfully comprehensive, hugely informative, engagingly written book. Linda Graham’s voice — personal, knowledgeable, confident, and inspiring — kept me reading as if it were a novel.”

— Tara Brach, author of Radical Acceptance and True Refuge “If you want the practical know-how to strengthen your ability to uncover resilience in any situation, I recommend diving into Resilience ! Take your time with this, soak in Linda Graham’s practical strategies and wisdom, and make it a part of your life!”
— Jonah Paquette, PsyD, author of Real Happiness and The Happiness Toolbox “In this powerful book, Linda Graham shares remarkable insights, practical tools, and essential skills to learn how to navigate life’s challenges. She draws on a wealth of research, personal wisdom, and heartfelt compassion from her work as a psychotherapist to show how we can all develop this much-needed quality of resilience. I can think of no better guide for this important work.”
“Even though we want life to be comfortable and pleasurable — and even though we often expect it to be so — life is often difficult, disappointing, and painful. (Darn it!) When things don’t go our way, we need specific skills and strategies to regain our balance and to keep ourselves from spiraling downward. This book is an essential reference and guide to developing those skills in ourselves and also in our kids (for parents) and clients (for coaches and therapists).”
— Ronald D. Siegel, PsyD, assistant professor of psychology at Harvard Medical School and author of The Mindfulness Solution “With over ten dozen practices and exercises, this book has what you need when things get tough, all in one convenient place. Look no further for the help you need to cope.”
“Resilience is a powerful concept because it refers to our underlying capacity to meet challenging times with grace and skill. It’s pure denial to say, ‘Don’t worry, nothing bad will ever happen.’ We need skills for coming back from hard times, and that’s what this book is all about. So many of us today struggle to find emotional balance and to heal the web of our human connections in the face of increasing anxiety and disorder. This book, with its astonishingly wide range of resources, could not have come at a better time. Linda Graham is the ideal guide to cultivating resilience, a calm, wise voice speaking from the interface of science and compassion. This book has so many valuable tools!”
