Hardback. Condizione: Good. As the first medical director and attending psychiatrist at the World Trade Center Mental Health Program, Dr. Sue Varma worked directly with civilian and first-responder survivors in the aftermath of 9/11. There, she met people at every point of the stress and trauma continuum. She saw devastation and stagnancy as much as she saw amazing resilience and growth. She asked herself: how do some people survive, even thrive, despite profound challenges? And how can we optimize the things we have control over, while buffering ourselves from stress? Through her work with patients and combining philosophy, her own personal experience, and a review of the latest research in psychology, psychiatry, medicine, and neuroscience, Dr. Varma discovered that the answer lies in cultivating an optimistic mindset that stays tethered to the real world and helps us make sound and reasonable decisions. This epiphany inspired Practical Optimism, Dr. Varma's powerful program with eight pillars to help all of us experience a sense of meaning, mastery, and self-acceptance and create lives filled with joy and purpose. Optimists, research has shown, are not just happier and more successful, but physically healthier. And if you're a natural-born pessimist? No problem: the most vital piece of the Practical Optimism program is that it is a practice, a skillset that we can choose to adopt and get better at every day. This book isn't about magical thinking. Practical optimists are resourceful, realistic, and thoughtful problem solvers who possess something of rare value: the inner resources to cope during a crisis and to use as fuel to flourish. Complete with self-assessment quizzes and exercises, Practical Optimism will help us all see the world for the better and reach our true potential. Practical Optimism is a scientific and tangible pathway to boosting health, happiness, resilience, success, and longevity.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Descubre el cambio de mentalidad que te ayudara, desde un enfoque realista, a vivir con plenitud y alegria en un mundo imperfecto y turbulento. Como logran algunas personas salir adelante a pesar de enfrentarse a grandes desafios vitales? Como podemos optimizar los aspectos de nuestra vida sobre los que tenemos control y, al mismo tiempo, protegernos del estres? La Dra. Sue Varma, que trabajo directamente con supervivientes de los atentados del 11S en Nueva York al inicio de su carrera como psiquiatra, descubrio que la respuesta a estas preguntas es cultivar una mentalidad optimista, pero en contacto con el mundo real: el optimismo practico. Los optimistas practicos se centran en aquello que pueden controlar y emplean estrategias clave de afrontamiento que les permiten no solo resistir mejor el estres, sino tambien volver a ese estado de animo mas elevado tras una adversidad, persistir ante el fracaso y, sobre todo, ver las cosas desde un punto de vista mas abierto y flexible que favorece su salud y su longevidad. En este libro, la Dra. Varma nos ensena los ocho pilares del optimismo practico y nos ofrece un plan apoyado en evidencia cientifica para cultivar esta mentalidad y guiarnos hacia una vida llena de alegria y proposito. Porque las cosas no siempre seran perfectas, pero si pueden ser mejores. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Discover the mindset shift that will help you, through a realistic approach, live with joy and fulfillment in an imperfect and turbulent world. How do some people manage to thrive despite facing major life challenges? How can we optimize the parts of our lives we can control while also protecting ourselves from stress? Dr. Sue Varma, who worked directly with survivors of the 9/11 attacks in New York early in her career as a psychiatrist, found that the answer lies in cultivating an optimistic mindset grounded in reality--what she calls "practical optimism." Practical optimists focus on what they can control and use key coping strategies that not only help them manage stress more effectively, but also allow them to bounce back after adversity, persist through failure, and--most importantly--see life through a more open and flexible lens that supports their health and longevity. In this book, Dr. Varma introduces the eight pillars of practical optimism and offers a science-backed plan to help readers cultivate this mindset and move toward a life filled with joy and purpose. Because things won't always be perfect--but they can absolutely get better. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
