Then it proposes what might get in the way of resilience with a quick overview of our Cultural Patterns and Protective Patterns— as well as our Adverse Childhood Experiences. It proposes the three Resilient Mindsets as essential to guiding us in these patterns and skills. The last three sections explain practical Resilience Skills for Centering, Connecting, and Collaborating, including the science that supports each skill and how to share it with our students using the practice, model, coach method. This book is helpful for both administrators and teachers to use themselves and as a tool to share the concepts with other colleagues and students.
