@RVPHTC Thank you so much! It was great "chatting" with you!

@RVPHTC A10: Anti-fragile by Nassim Nicholas Taleb. The Happiness Advantage by Shawn Achor. Positive Intelligence by Shirzad Chamine. #ResilienceChatRVPHTC #ResiliencyInRegionV #publichealth #antifragility

@RVPHTC A9: Just do it. We know its a busy, complicated world, but in the same way that regular trips to the gym build fitness, so too do regular practices with happiness, mindset and anti-fragility create well-being. #ResilienceChatRVPHTC #ResiliencyInRegionV #antifragility

[Ronald Chapman @Ronald_Chapman]

@RVPHTC A8: Probably the best known is gratitude lists or journaling. However, all kinds of practices like yoga, mindfulness, meditation, and breath work can lay a foundation. Really though, it’s our understanding and awareness that is the magic. #ResilienceChatRVPHTC #publichealth

[Ronald Chapman @Ronald_Chapman]

@RVPHTC A7: Psychology calls this the “ladder of inference.” Actions are produced based on feelings. Feelings result from how we experience the real world. That experience comes from how we interpret the world, and that is all about perception. #ResilienceChatRVPHTC #publichealth

[Ronald Chapman @Ronald_Chapman]

@RVPHTC A6: Part of anti-fragility in practice is mindset. The science of happiness produces a beneficial mindset. You can’t separate them bc how we operate/perform is a reflection of our inner state. #publichealth #ResilienceChatRVPHTC

[Ronald Chapman @Ronald_Chapman]

@RVPHTC A5: Happiness is the result of brain chemistry, and what the brain produces is a function of how we feed it … not just with good food, but with ideas, attitudes and reinforcement. High-functioning, high-performance culture is the result. #ResiliencyInRegionV #publichealth

[Ronald Chapman @Ronald_Chapman]

@RVPHTC A4: All public health work is driven by the passions of the people, or "the heart of public health." Their well-being, their growth and development, is the magic elixir that leaders nurture. People and culture that are stronger make for more public benefit. #resilience

[Ronald Chapman @Ronald_Chapman]

@RVPHTC A3: One option is to buy the book, Anti-fragile: Things That Gain From Disorder by Nassim Nicholas Taleb. The other is to work on your mindset to shift your perception and experience of stress. When difficulty is seen as opportunity for improvement, all kinds of benefits come.

[Ronald Chapman @Ronald_Chapman]

@RVPHTC A2: This cuts to the heart of things. Resilience allows things to hold up and stay the same. Anti-fragility is the means by which things grow stronger in response to stress. Like the human skeleton, bones strengthen with stress and evaluation strengthens services and delivery.

[Ronald Chapman @Ronald_Chapman]

@RVPHTC A1: Overwhelmed. Deeply responsible, committed people in the face of unprecedented need and demands on time. This coupled with capacities that were already quite stressed. Not surprisingly the results are challenges to morale, work-life balance, and well-being. #publichealth

When someone is in a deep and dark place that I like to call "the swamp", it is difficult to know how to be the most helpful to them. It is in these moments that "swamp guides" are the most useful. Read my latest post to learn more. #help #seeingtrue https://t.co/rf2plf2qbV
