StressLess – Proven Methods to Reduce Stress, Manage Anxiety and Lift Your Mood

Stress and the related health conditions are estimated to be the cause of 75–90 per cent of our visits to the GP according to the World Health Organization.

This book has been written by an expert clinical psychologist and a co-author who has suffered from stress and shares his experiences, which I could certainly relate to.

It starts with looking at the signs, symptoms and triggers for stress, then how the biology of the brain works before moving onto how we can all incorporate some actions and thoughts into our own lives to help us reduce the effects of stress.

StressLess is very well written and easy to follow – it explains stress in everyday language and provides some real answers for coping with life’s stressful events. I highly recommend it.
