Stress ManagementSimple Solutions To Start Now To Live A Stress Free LifeEBook ReviewI really enjoyed reading thisstress bookas it has helped me betterunderstand the situations in my day to daylife. I currently have beengoing through some rough times with my marriage as well as my work.I now realize that those rough times are not as rough as I thought theywere. Nothing really comes easy in life and this book certainly is not a“ this will fix everything book” , However it did help me stop andrealize what is important to me and made me stop worrying about allthe little stuff that I had no control over in the first place. The beginning of the book is about stress in general. What isstress andmost importantly what causes it. I have to admit that there were somethings that I was blind to that I didn’t even realize was causing mestress or anxiety.I think there are many different levels of stress that we go through. Forme, and it goes through this in the book, I would tend to eat and overeat when I become really stressed. As you can imagine this caused aneven bigger problem. Now my clothes started to not fit, my husbandwould make these little “fat” comments and one day I had one of myco-workers come up to me and ask if I were pregnant. The book actually helped me realize the things that were causing methe most stress. Once identified I then started doing the simple thingsthe book recommended to decrease my stress level. The “BEST” thingI did was to take a little bit of time for me ( which I did not have ) andstarted actually going to the gym 3 days a week. Now don’t get thewrong idea and think its some kind of “weight loss” or “how to get 6pack abs” book because that it’s not. It simple explained thatincreasing exercise was one of the best things you could do to relievestress.Another important thing I got out of this book was to take myself out of the stressful situations as much as I could. This was really helpful forwork. There were a couple of people at my work that I simply did notlike. Easy enough I started scheduling myself away from those peopleas much as possible. I am lucky enough that if a project come aboutand one of those “un-liked persons” were involved I could delegate thetask to someone else, whereas before I would tend to do it myself. Thiswas very soothing and rewarding to me !!
