show moreStress is our internal response to an experience that our brain perceives as threatening or challenging. Trauma is our response to an experience in which we feel powerless or lacking agency. Until now, researchers have treated these conditions as different, but they actually lie along a continuum.
In her groundbreaking book. Widen the Window, Dr. Elizabeth Stanley explains examines the cultural norms that impede resilience in America, especially our collective tendency to disconnect stress from its potentially extreme consequences and override our need to recover.
In this not-to-be-missed interview, Dr. Stanley shares stories and gives readers hands-on strategies they can use themselves, whether they want to perform under pressure or heal from a traumatic experience, while at the same time pointing our understanding in a new direction.
