Navigating Adversity

Tactical Self-Care for First Responders

De: Dr. Renee Thornton, Rodger Ruge

Narrado por: Joseph Courtemanche

Wellness has been defined in broad strokes for centuries - until now. This book clarifies a holistic perspective of what it means to be healthy while revealing common roadblocks to resilience and the resources needed to resist each one. Using personal stories and a diverse array of peer-reviewed behavioral, psychological, and organizational research, the authors present an evidence-based model for building physical, psychological, cognitive, emotional, financial, spiritual, social, and professional capital. This tactical approach to self-care is a lifelong resource that first responders can call upon so that when critical incidents occur, they are prepared to navigate adversity.

Valuable information.

Loved the book and it’s content. Wish the authors would have read it- the narrator did not do great describing the charts inside the book.
