This little book offers ten simple solutions any of us can use to make this important change once and for all. Based on positive psychology, mind-body medicine, and cognitive behavioral therapy, the ten solutions in this book take stress management to an unprecedented level of effectiveness. These short assessments, lifestyle enhancement tips, and emergency stress rescue techniques help readers to cope effectively with stress and to reduce its frequency in their lives. More than just lowering blood pressure and being generally happier, the techniques in this book can promote physical wellness and foster a greater sense of purpose, joy, and fulfillment in every reader. from the publisher, Caversham Books.
