From the Publisher

Written by Dr. Michael Hall, a psychotherapist and trainer and Debra Lederer, a psychology graduate and Stress Reduction Consultant, this book represents a very powerful and dynamic formula for understanding stress and for reducing it quickly and effectively at work and at home.

As a person who has taught many people how to relax but has, too often been the person who has suffered stress myself, I read this book with interested skepticisim. When I read the word yoga I thought "That's not for me . I am not the sort who can poke his left toe into his right ear! On completing the book, I actually felt uplifted and strengthened. I had developed a new understanding of myself, and in turn, this understanding had given me a freedom to remain calm. I wonder how I managed for so long without these secrets of relaxation and stress reduction.

This is an exciting and innovative book. A masterpiece of its kind.
