Editorial Reviews

Product Description
STRESS MANAGEMENT FOR LIFE: A RESEARCH-BASED EXPERIENTIAL APPROACH was written to emphasize experiential learning by clearly explaining the "how to" of stress management and prevention. Michael Olpin and Margie Hesson offer students more than just a book about stress; they offer students a life-changing experience. This text empowers students to experience personal wellness by understanding and managing stress. The authors encourage students to personalize the information in the text through practical applications and a "tool-box" of stress-reducing resources, including the "Stress Relief" DVD, and student "Activities Manual." Well-researched, this text gives stress-related topics a real-life context and helps motivate students to manage stress in a way that accommodates their lifestyle, values and goals. Your students will thank you for this text! After reading STRESS MANAGEMENT FOR LIFE: A RESEARCH-BASED EXPERIENTIAL APPROACH, students will realize that living with stress is unnecessary and that there are simple and effective ways to create a happier, stress-free life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful!, February 8, 2009
I really liked this book! It was for a Human Development class on stress management...

and at first I thought we would be reading stuffy material that would just add to our stress...

but I was wrong!

This book is fresh, filled with modern, updated information, and written in a really friendly voice. It also has pictures in it.

I especially liked the first-hand stories it had in it by real people who have dealt with their own stress. :)
