Bouncing Back: Rewiring Your Brain for Maximum Resilience and Well-Being Description
Resilience is the ability to face and handle life’s challenges, whether everyday disappointments or extraordinary disasters. While resilience is innate in the brain, over time we learn unhelpful patterns, which then become fixed in our neural circuitry. But science is now revealing that what previously seemed hardwired can be rewired, and Bouncing Back shows us how. With powerful, time-tested exercises, Linda Graham guides us in rebuilding our core well-being and disaster-proofing our brains.

Linda Graham's new book, Bouncing Back-- Rewiring Your Brain for Maximum Resilience and Well-Being-- is really great-- clear, engaging, and compassionate in its concern for the growth and well-being of humanity. Bouncing Back rises to the challenge of bringing together the wisdom of psychotherapy, neuroscience, and mindfulness practice into a powerful new way of building inner strategies to cope with, and emerge stronger from, the inevitable aggravations and emotional upsets, even traumas, that can otherwise derail your life.
As a career and life transitions coach, I've been successfully using some of this book's dozens of helpful exercises with my clients to help them build confidence in making major changes in their lives-- a process that usually involves a lot of reaching out, falling down, and having to get back up again. These exercises are easy to use and really work. They can be used on their own or enhanced by the author's excellent text on why they work-- from psychological, neuroscience, and mindfulness research and experiential evidence. Bouncing Back has taken its place as a major tool on my professional bookshelf! I highly recommend it for coaches, therapists, and anyone who wishes to be able to rise to life's challenges and handle life's inevitable risks with more grace, grounding, and centering.

This a very well-researched and highly technical book. Linda Graham really knows her stuff. If you just read the quotes and the chapter summations at the end of each chapter you would get immense benefit from reading this book.
The exercises featured in many of the chapters are very easy to do and implement as habits in your daily life. There are son many poignant and applicable quotes in this book you could probably write them on your one-a-day calender and fill up a whole year. And they're all so good.
Cons:
This book is very high-level and intellectual. It reads like a textbook and that can hard for some people to follow.
