Evidence-based, yet accessible!
This pocket guide to stress is compact and evidence-based, yet accessible and relatable. Dr. Michaels Wheeler provides important evidence of how stress affects our bodies and relationships, as well as concrete solutions for how to recognize and cope with daily stress and life a more happy and fulfilled life. I found the journal prompts and exercises throughout the book to be particularly helpful for guiding me through the material and relating it to my own life. Dr. Michaels Wheeler is clearly highly educated on these topics, yet writes in a way that is accessible for any audience, whether they are learning about stress for the first time or are already experts in the field! The title says it all. This book truly provides therapy in your pocket, and I cannot recommend it enough!

cope better!
Who hasn’t dealt with stress in the months since March? If, instead of just soldiering on, you could use some techniques to get through the harder times, this book is worth a look. It is written by a highly credentialed professional who wants to help folks to cope better.In her introduction the author notes that reducing stress makes room for a person’s creativity and spiritual growth, improves relationships and helps one to appreciate their body. She then offers ways to decrease the harmful impact of an overload of stress. Advice and techniques are offered in chapters that include “Use Flexible Coping Strategies; Get Into Your Body; Express Yourself and Stress Tool Kit.”One of the many things that I liked about this book, it that it is interactive. It includes questionnaires and writing prompts. Time invested in this title should yield some results. So…cope better in 2021!Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher. All opinions are my own.
