drowning allows these actions to happen faster. Your library of possible
actions is, in a way, a resilience factor.
Be physically Fit and stress free
If your body is in good condition and low on stress hormones, this will give
you a much better chance of not becoming traumatised.
Exercise regularly
Find some way to exercise regularly, no matter how little. By doing so you
clean out the potentially harmful chemicals of the body, boost the immune
system and bring oxygen to your brain. Research shows that exercising
ever so little can make a big difference:
#  A daily ten minute Do-In self massage
#  Five minutes of push-ups
#  Take the stairs instead of the elevator
#  Carry the bags for somebody
#  Walk or bicycle instead of taking a motor transportation
#  Dance as often as you can - MEDITATE REGULARLY.
Practice to keep your Mind calm
Make sure you consciously allow your mind to calm down in some
way regularly, regardless of how little. Any of the following mental
exercises will lower your stress levels and increase your resilience
more than you may think. You can increase your resilience by doing
some of these things:
#  Allow yourself a moment of daydreaming
#  Listen to your inner voice/your higher self/God
#  Call somebody you love or like
#  Read a book
#  Watch a sunset, a lake, a tree, a ower, a bird
