<v Speaker 1>Navy Seal and the title is Resilience Hard Won Wisdom.

00:00:08.279 --> 00:00:11.000
<v Speaker 1>We're Living a Better Life by Eric Britons. Turns out,

5
00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:14.199
<v Speaker 1>in twenty twelve, Navy Seal Eric heard from a former comrade,

6
00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Navy seal he hadn't seen in ten years, that gentleman

7
00:00:17.120 --> 00:00:20.760
<v Speaker 1>Zach Walker, had returned home from war struggling with PTSD,

8
00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:24.160
<v Speaker 1>watching his life and family collapse. A heavy drinker, Zach

9
00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:26.399
<v Speaker 1>reached out for help, and Eric was there to provide

10
00:00:26.399 --> 00:00:28.399
<v Speaker 1>that help, and the two of them shared their thoughts

11
00:00:28.399 --> 00:00:31.079
<v Speaker 1>on what it takes to add resilience to life, drawing

12
00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:33.719
<v Speaker 1>upon their experience, of course, as tough Navy seals, but

14
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:38.920
<v Speaker 1>how to deal with pain and practice compassion. As the

15
00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:41.520
<v Speaker 1>author points out, there's a warrior in each and every

16
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:45.079
<v Speaker 1>one of us, and resilience is an important and inspiring meditation.
