No topic may be as important in Psychology as resilience -- the ability to face adversity and remain mentally strong. But how exactly do we build that resilience?
Few protagonists illustrate resilience better than Jane Eyre, an orphaned girl who overcame adversity to become an independent woman. In this workshop, expert Astoria Wright will help you explore Jane Eyre as a means to better understand how to build resilience in your own life.
By the end of the workshop, you will be able to define resilience; understand main themes in the novel, Jane Eyre, as they exemplify resilience in the protagonist's life; identify the strategies that help build resilience; and apply these strategies to your own life.
