hiddenstar13 's review for:

The Resilience Project: Finding Happiness through Gratitude, Empathy and Mindfulness by Hugh van Cuylenburg

hopeful inspiring medium-paced

---

I was already familiar with the Resilience Project - I've done some of their journals (actually I really should get back on that) and I've listened to a fair bit of The Imperfects podcast too, which features Hugh van Cuylenburg. But reading this book really gave me a lot more context for the journey that van Cuylenburg has been through, along with his family, and how he developed the Resilience Project and the message of GEM (gratitude, empathy, mindfulness) that he shares. An enjoyable read overall and one that I am going to be thinking about for a while as I reflect on my own life and how well I am practising GEM.
