Belief in the success of the Iron Dome air defense system, coupled with a strong sense of resilience (an inner trait that results in positive adaptation to trauma), can reduce post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, suggests a new study examining PTSD symptoms in Israeli civilians following Operation Protective Edge, the Israel-Gaza conflict in 2014.

Matters of the power of belief is not a surprise to some. It is a differentiation of where you are coming from, a place of relative confidence or security... versus fear based defensive living or being self/ego driven.

I found early in recovery that belief carries on where/when willpower seems to fail. It's a mind trick perhaps but it serves.
