Stress Control: A Mind, Body, Life Approach to Boosting Your Well-being

An authoritative and readily accessible wellbeing book for treating common mental health problems with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).

Stress is part and parcel of life. We all get it. Think of blood pressure. If you are alive, you have blood pressure. If you are alive, you have stress. If your blood pressure gets too high, you should do something about it. The same is true with stress and this book will help you to control it.

Stress can be a mixture of anxiety, depression, panic feelings, poor sleep, low self-confidence, low self-esteem and a poor sense of wellbeing. It is one of the most common problems in the world today. But controlling your stress doesn't have to mean expensive therapy or a long waiting list for a referral to a service. This book will teach you to become your own therapist:

Learn about stress and how it affects you
Follow straight-forward steps to get an instant sense of control
Develop a set of linked skills for long-term stress management
Boost your wellbeing
Feel in control of your future

This accessible, jargon-free book combines clinically proven methods from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), positive psychology and mindfulness to give you the tools you need to improve your mind, your body and your life.
