The Tools of Resilience Children’s Pupil Book consists of 10 lessons which are designed to introduce children to six specific evidence-based skills of resilience as follows:

Perspective
Healthy distraction
Thought disputation
Use of authentic character strengths
Mindfulness
Problem-focused planning
The children are also introduced to a mindfulness- base calming strategy to help them cope with anxiety, anger and other strong emotions. Each strategy has a specific ‘tool’ which is represented by an image to help the children to understand and utilise the concepts involved. The Pupil Book gradually builds into a highly personal portfolio which reflects the child’s use of each tool. Children also learn what well-being means and the importance of taking care of our well-being.
