Description
This book takes a comprehensive, practical, and applied workbook approach that teaches students successful stress reduction techniques to promote health and well-being in their own lives. Unlike the other stress management textbooks that are based on the conceptual and theoretical aspects of stress, this book focuses on the actual techniques to show students "how" to reduce stress. This practical, accessible workbook helps students develop the skills required to control stress, reduce anxiety, and promote balance and harmony in thought, emotion, and action.
