This podcast focuses on the science behind resilience. Resilience is the ability to get knocked down and then get back up again; it is the power of recovery from adversity.

For an elastic band, resilience is the ability for that object to be stretched and then return to its original length.

For human beings, resilience is the power and ability to get back to a predefined normal state – unless stretched too often. At that point, you have established a new norm, or you continue to live in despair.
