A tender, powerful, and achievable path to the everyday resiliency we all need to navigate the uncertainty in our lives.

An inspiring new voice in resiliency, Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe believes that our modern conception of resiliency as "fighting" or being "tougher" is misguided. Learning happens when we are able to trust and feel safe; fear and shame are barriers, not facilitators, for authentic growth, acceptance, and change.

In Calm Within the Storm, Dr. Robyne maps out a kinder approach to taking on the challenges of life and developing authentic self-alignment and balance. By focusing on research-informed, sustainable, and achievable personal development practices, Dr. Robyne presents a new, attainable model for everyday resiliency—one that everyone can use to feel more grounded and capable. She identifies the obstacles that derail us and keep us stuck, and shows us how to enact our resiliency through stories, research, and practical strategies.

Dr. Robyne's approach is grounded in the latest research in neuroscience, psychology, and mindfulness, and is designed to help individuals build resilience in the face of stress, adversity, and change. She emphasizes the importance of self-compassion, self-care, and self-awareness, and provides practical strategies for cultivating these qualities.

One of the key insights of Calm Within the Storm is that resiliency is not a fixed trait, but a skill that can be developed and honed over time. Dr. Robyne encourages individuals to embrace vulnerability and seek support from others, and provides tools for building strong relationships and developing a sense of community.

Another important aspect of Dr. Robyne's approach is her emphasis on the role of mindfulness in developing resiliency. She teaches individuals how to cultivate mindfulness through meditation, deep breathing, and other mindfulness practices, and shows how these practices can help individuals manage stress, reduce anxiety, and increase their overall sense of well-being.

In addition to providing practical strategies for developing resiliency, Calm Within the Storm is also a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit. Dr. Robyne shares personal stories of resilience and adversity, and shows how individuals can overcome even the most challenging circumstances.

Overall, Calm Within the Storm is an inspiring and practical guide to developing everyday resiliency. Whether you are facing personal challenges, or are looking to build resilience in your community or workplace, this book will provide you with the tools and insights you need to thrive in the face of uncertainty.
