Story5 out of 5 stars 21
As the first medical director and attending psychiatrist at the World Trade Center Mental Health Program, Dr. Sue Varma worked directly with civilian and first-responder survivors in the aftermath of 9/11. There, she met people at every point of the stress and trauma continuum. She saw devastation and stagnancy as much as she saw amazing resilience and growth. She asked herself: how do some people survive, even thrive, despite profound challenges? And how can we optimize the things we have control over, while buffering ourselves from stress?

Dr. Sue Varma’s Practical Optimism offers a refreshing and actionable blueprint for cultivating resilience and joy in everything you do. How timely for me as I have entered a new chapter in my life. Dr Varma lays out 8 pillars like purpose, emotional processing, and healthy habits to name a few, she provides this with science-backed tools for thriving in life’s challenges. Grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy and enriched by personal stories, the book is both useful and inspiring.
I believe it is empowering guide for building a fulfilling life, Practical Optimism is a must-read for anyone seeking balance, positivity, and purpose in our day to day lives   .
