Identify and manage stress with this practical, seven-step programme by
bestselling author and GP, Dr Harry Barry**
In the world we live in, stress comes from a multiple number of sources,
including pressures at work, relationship difficulties and illness. Most
people can usually take what life throws at them; but when stress builds
up, it can overwhelm an individual and lead to potentially serious
health problems.
Toxic stress is an indispensable tool on coping with the stresses of
modern life. By identifying the different kinds of stress and in
particular the dangers of 'toxic' stress, Dr Barry shows us how to
discover where our stress is coming from and how we can effectively
confront, manage and reduce it in our lives.
