Publisher's Synopsis
Everyone seems stressed these days. From the current pandemic to economic pressures, racial unrest, political tensions and natural disasters, the start of the new decade has seemed to throw one stressor after another.
In this book, you'll learn, in this no-nonsense stress psychology guide, such tidy morsels as:
"Oh Stress, You Diabolical Bastard!" - In this chapter, we'll go over what stress actually does to the body -- it's far more physical than you think -- and break down a foundational strategy for how to conquer it.
"How to Hack Your Brain for Maximum Stress-Managing Awesomeness" - You may think you have ONE BRAIN...but you actually have three. In this chapter, we go over some hacks for dealing with that one major obstacle to stress management...your brain!
"How to Get a Good Night's Sleep (Even If You're an Insomniac)" - We all know getting adequate amounts of sleep might be the most powerful stress management technique of all. But we'll go beyond the platitudes and show you how to (actually) sleep -- no matter what's plaguing your mind.
"How to Make a Living (Without Losing Your Frickin' Mind)" - All the mantras and burning incense don't hold a candle to the power of stress at work. In this section, we go over the shortcuts and strategies people in the most stressful and demanding jobs use to stay above and out of the fray.
"How to Make Home a Stress-Free Sanctuary of Semi-Wonderfulness" - Home is where the heart is. It's also where some of our biggest stressors come from. In this chapter, I'll show you how to establish a peaceful setting, even in the midst of chaos.
