Raw Coping Power: From Stress to Thriving (in life and business)
explores new ways to address the growing problem of stress in
society and the workplace. It is both a practical guidebook and
resource for anyone interested in mastering stress, including
individuals, groups, workplaces, and those who serve them (such as
coaches, counselors, trainers, and therapists). Each individual has
an innate capacity to transform stress into an opportunity for
thriving and flourishing. Stress is both a friend and teacher. We
can tap into this truth through reminders, a certain vision, and
practice of simple tools. And Raw Coping Power provides all of
these with specific encouragement to use over 30 exercises in the
tool section.
The chapter on the 7 Principles first establishes a foundation
of knowledge-with different maps borrowed from research. Each
principle is discussed with examples, giving readers confidence
that our mind-body system is designed to transform instead of
succumb to stress. The next chapter translates research from 10
different areas of modern science including neuroplasticity,
post-traumatic growth, resilience, social capital, and the author's
own studies on team wellness.
The Tool chapter gives readers simple exercises, most of which
can be completed in 10 minutes and systematically designed to tap
into our capacity for resilience. The purpose and background of
each tool is described and specific steps are given that make these
easy to use. A Resource section also gives different tips on where
and how to get additional help. Much of Raw Coping Power is based
in scientific research and a Notes section gives additional
citations and capsule clarifications for studies and other
references used. A list of definitions also makes this a very
useful tool for communicating this innovative approach to audiences
who are looking to see stress in a whole new and positive
light.
