The present day world is quite demanding. The changing demands and the relentless pace we face in our personal and professional lives can take a toll on us, both in terms of compromised physical and emotional health, and damage to relationships.
Resilience encompasses certain mental behaviours and processes that people use to protect themselves from the harmful effects of environmental stressors. It's the ability to adapt and flex to the different obstacles that we come across as part of our lives.
While stress and adversity are part of real life, how we react to them is totally our responsibility. We can either choose to succumb to the stress and wallow in it, or we could rise to the occasion and explore ways in which we can bounce back and grow from the experience. The tool to achieve this change is Resilience Coaching.
Resilience can also be viewed as planning for an oncoming storm, as it will help diffuse the power of the storm itself. Some people tend to be naturally resilient, while others need to build their resilience in order to weather storms they come across better.
In essence, resilience is all about being able to effectively adapt to change.
To be resilient, whether as an individual, leader, or team, it means needing a reservoir or energy and resources to draw upon that enable you to comfortably adapt to setbacks and obstacles as they come, and maybe even embrace and delight in them.
Let's expound on the concept of the reservoir and expand it out.
As humans, we all regularly need to direct our energy and resources into various things, be it physical, mental, emotional, or others. Imagine this as a river flowing away from the reservoir. The main challenge is that there will often be rocks in the river.
These rocks could be a setback, an unexpected change, or an obstacle that you may encounter on a daily basis, some being tiny and others much bigger. It might be that there's no milk for your tea, or it could be a significant illness or financial issue.
If your reservoir is running low, then the water will struggle getting over the rocks, and even the smaller rocks will seem a lot larger. Getting over them will only leave you feeling drained of energy. If you are able to consistently nourish your own resilience reservoir, it will be always be ample enough such that flows out easily over the rocks, no matter their size.
What is Resilience Coaching?
Resilience coaching provides expert support meant to enhance an individual or build's personal assets. Generally speaking, to build skills in resilience, there's great emphasis in the process of growth. And by helping you focus on what worked well in the past, you can establish a proper baseline for developing your resilience skills.
The content and format of a resilience coaching program will vary based on the challenges you might be facing, and what you're looking to achieve. Plus, there's no silver bullet for resilience-- what works for you will not necessarily work for someone else. You should approach resilience coaching with an openness to explore what this means to you.
How Is Resilience Coaching Beneficial?
Whether you're undergoing some change in your personal life or career, handling a difficult relationship, or dealing with the effect of a health problem, resilience coaching can be quite useful. It's something that will not only help you deal with a whole list of troubling issues, but also something that can improve your overall well being.
The main benefits of resilience coaching are associated with the expert targeted support you get on a personal basis. With the help and support of a good coach, you will be able to narrow down the issues you need to address, explore a variety of coping skills, and build a resilience strategy to help you deal with these issues.
Ultimately, this will help you develop and maintain a more optimistic, confident, and resilient outlook, which will ultimately make you better equipped to overcome and manage both the future and current challenges.
What To Expect From a Coaching Session?
A good coaching session will start by helping you clearly define your issues and objectives. You will establish the coping skills you're using already and ones that you can usefully add to your toolkit. You may also get a chance to practice and reflect on these new skills and how they're helpful to you. You will also explore and troubleshoot any setbacks or blocks that you may have experienced during the process.
Resilience isn't always about managing challenges and stress-- it's also about being able to learn from these experiences, bounce back, and develop new skills in doing so. Reflection is vital as it helps build resilience by improving self-awareness and recognition of change. This helps to increase your motivation to keep you applying new skills.
Reflection will also enhance your self-efficacy. Learning that it's possible to take charge of the difficult experiences on your own and seeing the benefit of doing so, it will help you build resilience not only in your current situation, but also give you the confidence to deal with future challenges.
The end result will be a stronger and resilient you, who will be fully engaged and able to tackle setbacks and challenges as they come in the future.
