Description: Building Resilience and Finding Meaning in Life by June Rousso The guide also can be read by counselors and educators to help teens cope and live a more meaningful life. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Building Resilience and Finding Meaning in Life: A Guide for Teens is an interactive book meant to engage readers in learning how to face adversities in life and to find meaning in these experiences. It gives the message that we have a treasure chest of inner resources that can be called upon in the face of adversity. These resources must be discovered and, in some instances, developed to build resilience and find what holds personal meaning. Along with discovering meaning in adversity readers are encouraged to look for meaningful moments in their lives rather than engaging in activities that often lead them to feel empty inside. The guide also can be read by counselors and educators to help teens cope and live a more meaningful life. The guide was inspired by the teachings of Dr. Viktor Frankl, noted author of Mans Search for Meaning, and by the research findings on character strengths presented by the VIA Institute on Character.

Review "Dr. June Rousso has written a unique and important book aimed at providing adolescents with a means towards developing inner resilience at a time when life can be filled with suffering. (What could be important, especially in this current day and age?). Her ingenious choice has been to marry the profound philosophical wisdom of Dr. Viktor Frankl (a concentration camp survivor known for his seminal work, Mans Search for Meaning) and the research on character strengths from the VIA Institute on Character, with a practical, step by step guide to achieving resilience in the face of inevitable suffering that accompanies the age. Dr. Rousso shares these ideas in a clear, concise, easy to comprehend language that will engage teenagers, young adults, and educators as well." - Julie Marcus, Ph.D. Former Assistant Director Child and Adolescent Clinic Postgraduate Center for Mental Health"I just finished reading this book and I truly thought it was eye-opening and beautiful. I often feel like I become so overwhelmed with the negativity and suffering in my life that I forget to search for the deeper meaning of it all. Luckily, this book reminded me of the importance of this, especially through the exercises that were included in each chapter. I feel that they really helped me reflect on past experiences that may have been painful in the moment, but have actually taught me so many vital lessons about myself and my relationships with other people. I definitely think I am able to view them in a new light now. Im not usually someone who annotates while reading, but there were so many lines that stuck out to me that I ended up highlighting something every few pages! Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and it was so consoling to feel understood in the challenges I face as an adolescent while also learning about the tools I can use to overcome adversity." - Alyssa Simone, Chief Advertising Officer, Child Resilient Details ISBN Pages 92 Publisher June Rousso Language English Year 2022 ISBN-13 9798985129908 Format Paperback Publication Date 2022-02-17 UK Release Date 2022-02-17 Author June Rousso Imprint June Rousso Subtitle A Guide for Teens Audience Teenage / Young adult We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
