5.0 out of 5 stars De-stress your life with this book!!!, December 28, 2011
Stress? Find Your Balance is a great book. It is an easy read and can easily be incorporated into every day life resulting in less stress. I found this book so helpful and truly easy to follow. So often techniques in books are too hard to follow and can't realistically be incorporated into life, this was not the case with this book. I continue to use techniques from this book every day and highly recommend it to anyone experiencing any level of stress. It gives you the tools to manage and deal with stressors.

5.0 out of 5 stars LOVE THIS BOOK!, October 23, 2011
Stress? Find Your Own Balance, was a book that I read as part of a stress management course that I recently took. I highly recommend it. Like one of the other reviewers, I also originally had the book back in the early 90's. I was able to use practical information given in the book to make a positive difference in my life. More recently when I took the course, I ordered the revised edition. I love this book, and find that it has great, practical information that applies to each and every one of us. One of the things that I love about it, is it is easy to relate to and understand. Sometimes I find myself referring back to it so I can keep my stress management plan on track. The course that I took was online through one of the book's authors, Dr. Allen Press. He is an amazing instructor and is highly skilled and talented.
