Video 2 – Cognitive Reframing

By Christopher Shen, Psychologist  ·  25 April 2023

I am delighted to welcome you to the second video in my 6-video Building Resilience series, which shares practical research-based techniques to help you master difficulties in life, build resilience, foster positivity and increase your mental health and well-being.

This second video focuses on cognitive reframing, and how you can use it to change how you conceptualise difficulties. In it, I share some simple but powerful reframing questions you can ask yourself when you face a difficult situation or person in your life, to change your experience of that difficulty from a threatening stressor to a positive challenge to face and master. This is a mindset shift that will help you face and master daily challenges.

Please take a few minutes to watch this video and, if you can, share it with others.

All the techniques in this Building Resilience video series are from my book Wrestling with Resilience, which contains many more tips and activities to boost your resilience in daily life.

I warmly invite you to visit my Publications page for links to purchase either the ebook or print version of this book.

Thank you to Luke McDade at LVM Enterprises in Yarraville for filming and producing this series.
