Hi again @reos! I really enjoy your comments, because I have pondered the same questions. If you want me to I will dig around in my academic search engine to see what the literature says about correlations between mindfulness and resiliency. When I first wrote this post there was not much research trying to tie the two together, although the basic concepts of mindfulness and resiliency are complementary. And yes, if I remember correctly resiliency is measurable, again will have to dig for journal citations. Thank you for giving me a great idea for a new post! I suspect there is a strong positive correlation between the two:-) As to the last point you raise, "if mindfulness can have a hand in developing resiliency" From my own experience the practice of being mindful encourages the underlying paradigm (or framework) of resiliency, and then the enhanced resiliency helps me be more mindful. You almost have to wonder if they are two sides of the same coin... Thanks again for commenting:-)
