Stress reduction for busy people : finding peace in a chronically anxious world - GROVES (California : New World Library, 2004)
In today's world, few can claim to be "stress free." Stress follows us everywhere. Even the technology that makes our lives more convenient, such as cell phones and instant messaging, often creates more stress that it relieves. Over-stressed people(and that's all of us) court headaches, insomnia, irritability, memory problems, back and neck pain, immune system damage, digestive distress, even life-threatening illness. Yet despite these clear warning signs, most of us remain bound by our lifestyles and too busy to change them. This practical guide will help you cope with each new challenge without adding another layer of stress or something else to do each day. No matter how awful your circumstances, no matter how emotionally fried you think you are, there's a way through it. You can limit your stress response, find purpose within your suffering, take action, to shift events or your perceptions of them, and open your mind to happiness in unexpected places.
