The World Is Not a Stressful Place: Stress Relief for Everyone - Hardcover

Several years ago, I co-authored the college textbook titled, Stress Management for Life. Since that time, thousands of students around the country have used the text as part of a Stress Management or similar college course.

Since that time, students have frequently told me how much they loved the book. Time after time I would hear people say that the book was "Life-Changing" or "It had a profound effect on every aspect of my life."

This is great to hear. I'm so happy to hear that it helps.

The problem is that the next thing they would tell me is that they wanted to buy a copy of the book for their favorite people in their lives, but they didn't want to pay the college textbook price. It's too expensive to buy for gifts.

I wrote this book, The World is NOT a Stressful Place, to give the same very useful information that is found in the textbook, but it is written in a more personal style and keeps everything very simple and easy to understand.

But best of all, this book doesn't cost the same as the college textbook.

After having worked with so many people over the years, I've come to know what works to help people reduce and prevent their stress. It's funny; when I tell people that I teach courses in stress management, invariably, the response that I immediately get from these fine folks is, "Boy, that's a class I need to take!" or "That's a class my family member or friend needs to take!"

Everyone I know is stressed out. But they don't know what to do about it.

After having worked with so many people over the years, I've come to know what works to help people reduce and prevent their stress. Most of this learning is found in this book. I'm confident the information and "tools" that you will find in this book will help you learn how to be happier, more peaceful, and much healthier!

It's worth the read.
