Who doesn't have stress?

 
            Stress is not caused by what happens to you. Stress is caused by your response to what happens to you.

            In 1996, Jay joined the National Association of Professional Organizers. He wanted to develop something to give to his clients - something that would be more useful than a tri-fold brochure about his services. That's how he came to write 65 Ideas for Reducing Stress.

            A friend warned him, "You can't write that. You're not a doctor."

            Jay replied, "These are just ideas. You don't have to be a doctor to have ideas."

 

     In looking at the different ways that people get stressed, Jay has divided these sixty-five ideas into four different categories:

  • Plans and preparations: 21 approaches in the area of time management.

  • Your body and its surroundings: 11 ways to pay attention to that work of art you call your body

  • Your relationship with yourself: These 20 ideas are all in your mind!

  • Your relationship with others: You can't avoid 'em, can you? Here are 13 techniques for working with them to your best advantage.

  • There is also a recommended reading list.
    Available in booklet form ($5.00)
    and as an e-booklet ($2.50).
