With this simple, straightforward solution, you can switch your
brain's autopilot from habitual stress and anxiety to a mindset
that is calm and wired for success. Stress debilitates and even
damages the brain, inhibiting you from living life to the fullest.
From your career to your family to your golf score, everything
depends on higher brain networks functioning at optimum. That's why
alleviating stress is the key to success-and why changing your
brain is the first step to sustaining more joy, peace, and
fulfilment at every level of life. In The End of Stress, Don Joseph
Goewey offers an easy, four-step method that will increase your
brainpower and end anxiety. Drawing on the latest research in
neuroscience and neuroplasticity, Goewey's cutting-edge approach
has been tested through webinars and seminars in high-stress
environments and proven effective from chief executives, managers,
and engineers to blue-collar construction workers. You have the
power to reach your highest potential-but it all starts with the
brain. The End of Stress gives you the tools you need to transcend
stress and make every day your best day.
This is a collection of 100 short essays, designed to teach the reader simple strategies for living a more fulfilled and peaceful life. The author claims that everyone can learn to put things in perspective by making the small daily changes such as: resist the urge to criticize; choose being kind over being right; ask yourself the question "will this matter a year from now?"; do something nice for someone else - and don't tell anyone else about it; and listen to your feelings. Richard Carlson aims to offer ways to make actions more peaceful and to help the reader be calm and stress-free.
