KIRB® Resilience Factors

Sleep allows the brain and body to rest, repair, rebalance, and reorganize.

Exercise and physical movement can help you reduce stress chemicals and maintain or build cardiovascular health, strength, balance, and flexibility.

What you eat and drink fuels your body and brain and influences your general health and wellbeing.

Supportive relationships allow you to give and receive help and experience care, belonging, and understanding.

Activities unrelated to work that you find enjoyable and relaxing help refresh and refuel you.

Boundaries around work and other demands help create space for rest and sustain energy over time in demanding contexts.

Your attitude and perspective toward life influences your choices and emotional experiences. An outlook that contributes to resilience involves a sense of optimism, contentment, and enjoyment.

Your ability to tolerate and manage strong emotions helps you use healthy coping strategies, maintain important relationships, achieve goals, and work effectively on problem-solving.

How you approach and engage with challenges influences how effectively you can cope with difficulties and hardships, solve problems, and achieve important goals.

Beliefs and experiences that are meaningful contribute to resilience by fostering a powerful sense of energy, purpose, fulfillment, and enrichment.
