Whether it's your daily dealings at work or a pervasive concern for your physical safety, the stress you regularly experience may actually be more harmful than the threat that triggered it. Not only can it lead to isolation and an erosion of happiness, stress can be biologically harmful, bringing about health issues, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, ulcers, and strokes. In short, successfully managing stress could be nothing less than a life-or-death situation.
Now, professional biofeedback practitioner Harry L. Campbell presents What Stress Can Do, his unprecedented guide to the importance of minimizing everyday stress in order to short-circuit its many serious side effects. What's more, his easy-to-implement recommendations enable you to do so without use of any drugs.
Recent data on the prevalence of stress documents that as much as 90 percent of all doctors' office visits are related to stress. However, with the right skills and perspective, you can preempt the physical fallout from the tolls of daily life, and gain new mastery over your mind. The time is right to take a step back, breathe easy, and once and for all address all that ails you.
