| Abstract
|
:
|
Stress Management: A Wellness Approach presents practical tools for managing stress in six dimensions: physical, emotional, intellectual, social, spiritual, and environmental. The book takes a holistic view of managing stress rather than looking only at the symptoms. The content is drawn from leading research and best practices from experts in the field of positive psychology, such as Seligman (flourishing), Benson (relaxation response), and Kabat-Zinn (mindfulness), helping college students focus on their strenths. Stress Management offers these features: -Questions that promot critical and reflective thinking in journal entries and discussions as students look to creatively solve problems -Experiential activities that encourage students to practice stress management techniques. Stress Management offers evidence-based research and practical tools that students can use in dealing with changes and stress in healthy and positive ways--now and throughout their lives. -from back cover
