Be Resilient and Thrive
It’s only natural to occasionally stagger under the weight of crisis and upheaval – both personal and global. This book is about getting back up on the other side.
Building resilience isn’t about simply moving on; it’s about distilling strategies for the future from the things that have hurt us. Armed with years of research (and hard-won life experience), Patrick Lindsay has identified four keys to resilience: a sound mind, a sound body, a sound spirit and an action plan.
BEAUTY SURROUNDS US EVERY DAY

Patrick believes we feel beauty before we think about it. In Finding Beauty he points out the beauty in our daily lives and prompts us to draw from it to lift our spirits.
