About this listen

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Resilient written and read by Rick Hanson.

Experience lasting happiness, love and peace

The author of the New York Times bestselling Hardwiring Happiness, Rick Hanson is known for his trademark blend of neuroscience, positive psychology and contemplative practices. In Resilient, he explains how to build the very foundations of well-being by harnessing the power of positive experiences to build an unshakeable core.

Dr. Hanson has distilled 40 years of clinical work and teaching into 12 highly effective tools. Working with these tools allows you to enter a positive cycle which creates a sense of well-being, which in turn establishes resilience, which feeds upon itself to strengthen you.

Developed from his incredibly popular online course called The Foundations of Well-Being, here is the groundwork you need to be able to meet life with a whole heart.

Forrest and Rick have a beautiful rapport. This book distills some of their clearest and most heartfelt wisdom. Also their podcast offers so much value—I had to buy the book. It’s wonderfully soothing listening to Rick’s voice right before bed. Wholesome listening.

Dr Rick Hanson is so clever in the way he goes through each chapter and leaves us with a greater understanding about our feelings and our lives.
Highly recommended.

Excellent & informative

This is a nice enough book and I might listen to it again. However I didn’t take away that much of practical use beyond ‘savouring’ positive experiences. The majority of the book is based on a mindfulness approach which isn’t exactly new.

Ok but nothing life changing
