#Whatis Post-Traumatic Growth?

The phenomenon of trauma occurs when extremely stressful events shatter your emotional and psychological well-being, overwhelming your ability to cope. According to the charity PTSD, 1 in 2 people will experience trauma at some point in their life, and 20% of those will develop post-traumatic stress.

This fascinating and accessible book explains the many varied forms trauma can take, shows how to recognize signs of post-traumatic stress, and offers resilience-building strategies to go beyond 'coping' with it in order to grow from it instead - proving that what doesn't kill you can indeed make you stronger.

After an insightful introduction about why the subject of post-traumatic growth is so worth exploring, each main chapter addresses key questions such as:

• What is trauma and what is post-traumatic stress?
• What is meant by the concept of post-traumatic growth?
• How do you cope positively during and after trauma?
• How can you strengthen your resilience to keep going through adversity?
• And, finally, how can you grow from this adversity?
