Managing Stress-Principles and Strategies for Health and Well-Being,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Managing Stress: Principles and Strategies for Health and Wellbeing with Art of Peace Workbook (Paperback)
I'm in an advance study program in health and wellness and this text book is part of one of my courses. However, this book can be used by anyone interested in learning how to manage their stress.
I have read several other works on managing stress and this is simply the best I have ever read. It is easy to read with lots of graphics and photos. It has a section in each chapter that highlights definitions you should understand and remember. There are many worksheets to help you work though your own stress issues. At the end of each chapter there is a summary in bullet form that highlight the most important concepts. The books walks you though stress management in a step by step indebt process. You can skip around chapters reading the ones you need or are interested in and still get a lot out of it. If you are studying stress at the college level you will love this book and if you are just interested in learning and managing your own stress and can read at a 9th grade level you will find this a fantastic resource. The last chapter covers more than 10 of the most powerful stress management techniques that you will learn to use for the rest of you life. The workbook that came with my order is an outstanding addition to helping you understand stress management. And my girl friend uses the relaxation CD to help her sleep.

Poor scholarship,
This review is from: Managing Stress: Principles and Strategies for Health and Wellbeing with Art of Peace Workbook (Paperback)
Interpret this as you will, but this book does not take a scientific approach to the study of stress, preferring to rely on ancient medicine and holistic body-mind-spirit ideas.
Unfortunately, the author not only departs from scientific fact, but also from common-sense scientific methodology. Evidence for "cell memory" is an unverified story of an unnamed woman who had cravings for beer and chicken nuggets after recieving a heart transplant from a motorcyclist. Einstein proved that E=mc^2; even scientists admit the universe is a friendly place made of spiritual energy! These statements reflect poor understanding and scholarship by the author and turn an interesting, harmless book on holistic health into an embarassing lesson on what happens when you believe everything you hear.

Excellent book!!!,
By D F (Comment Section) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Managing Stress: Principles and Strategies for Health and Well-Being (Paperback)
I highly recommend this book. I took a college course and we used this book. It is a very balanced book and looks into all areas of Eustress (good stress), Neustress (neutral stress) and distress (bad stress). It gives a plethora of step by step information on many different techniques into managing and eliminating stress. It was so helpful to me, I decided to keep the book once my class was over. There is also an excellent accompanying journal called Managing Stress "A Creative Journal" you can buy to go with it.
