When the main road is blocked, forge a new path. Believe that a way always exists. Over the past two years, Hong Kong has undergone unprecedented, rapid changes, and the emotional state of its people has hit rock bottom. Amidst the overwhelming feelings of helplessness, fear, worry, and despair, where can we find mental well-being? May we all recognize ourselves amidst hardship and despair, understand our purpose for existence, and thus diminish the threats and oppression brought by our circumstances. Of course, finding life's meaning is not an easy feat, especially in an environment of extreme pressure. Therefore, before finding meaning, perhaps what we need now is psychological resilience – what is commonly referred to as the ability to bounce back. Resilience is not something that appears overnight; it is gradually discovered through inner transformation, coupled with practical actions. This book selects several methods to enhance resilience, illustrated with Ami's own experiences, to help us explore more possibilities together.
