Research on the process of resilience encourages a systemic rather than fragmented epistemology. By combining neurological development and narrative techniques, we can observe how emotional pressures from the family and social environment form the human brain. This is how it can acquire a neuro-emotional vulnerability or, on the contrary, the protective factors needed against traumas. When the injured person’s story is consistent with the surrounding stories, the person experiences a sense of calm that regulates brain function. But when the intimate and collective stories are conflicting, the maladjusted casualty feels isolated and misunderstood, making the process of resilience difficult. We can act on the environment that acts on our brain to increase the possibility of resilience. This degree of freedom makes us responsible for organizing such an environment.
