Prof George Bonanno is Clinical psychologist and author of The end of Trauma, and The other side of Sadness.
In this episode we define what trauma means as far as the professor is concerned and how it differs from the commonly accepted definition of trauma.
Plus we ask why the coventional wisdom on trauma is so at odds with Professor Bonanno's findings.
The professor asks why trauma only crops up in the literature a couple of hundred years ago when it should have been present all throught human history.
We hear about PTSD and how it doesn't apply to everyone who has experienced a traumatic life event.
We learn about resilience, the traits of resilience, the resilience paradox and why a flexibility mindset is so important.
Expect to learn what steps to take in order to enhance your resilience.
Plus we explore how the lessons learned to bolster our relience can be applied to the grieving process.
