5.0 out of 5 stars Much to Consider about Stress, July 2, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Managing Stress (Paperback)

This is a good book on the topic of managing stress. Personally I would have liked to have seen more on the topic of burnout and maybe something on the stress of dealing with unruly children. But there was a lot in here on stress that I hadn't considered before. There was also some approaches to managing stress that were new to me, and of course that's always appreciated. The little boxes on every page like what a concept, etched in stone, and warning were kind of clever.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Managing Stress (Paperback)

This is a great book for ideas on how to get back control of your life. If you have a extremely stressful career like I do you'll love reading the different ideas in this book. Chapter 6 covers ways to fight burnout, figuring out when you're most productive & how to deal with work overload. Chapter 16 covers mastering your environment which has lots of ideas on how to deal challenges at home & work plus ideas on how to recharge your energy. This is a great book & well worth the money!
