Modern times are stressful--and it's killing us. Unfortunately, we
can't avoid the things that stress us out, but we can change how we
respond to them. In this breakthrough book, a clinical psychologist and
neuroscience expert offers an original approach to help readers harness
the power of positive emotions and overcome stress for good.
Stress is, unfortunately, a natural part of life--especially in our busy
and hectic modern times. But you don't have to let it get in the way of
your health and happiness. Studies show that the key to coping with
stress is simpler than you think--it's all about how you respond to the
situations and things that stress you out or threaten to overwhelm you.
The Stress-Proof Brain offers powerful, comprehensive tools based in
mindfulness, neuroscience, and positive psychology to help you put a
stop to unhealthy responses to stress--such as avoidance, tunnel vision,
negative thinking, self-criticism, fixed mindset, and fear. Instead,
you'll discover unique exercises that provide a recipe for resilience,
empowering you to master your emotional responses, overcome negative
thinking, and create a more tolerant, stress-proof brain.
This book will help you develop an original and effective program for
mastering your emotional brain's response to stress by harnessing the
power of neuroplasticity. By creating a more stress tolerant, resilient
brain, you'll learn to shrug off the small stuff, deal with the big
stuff, and live a happier, healthier life.
