How to resolve stress, build resilience and boost your energy
“Do you feel overwhelmed, tired, anxious or wired?” That’s the opening question asked by nutritionist and psychologist Patrick Holford and stress-management expert Susannah Lawson (the pros behind this book) – and chances are, you can relate. According to a survey of more than 55 000 people, 72% felt stressed, 66% were frequently anxious and tense and 81% had increasingly low energy. Thanks to the high demand of modern-day life, it’s pretty likely that you have felt one or more of these symptoms at some point – and are maybe even experiencing them right now – but that doesn’t mean that you have to put up with it.
Starting with an emphasis on correct nutrition and healthy eating (once again, that means no sugar!) and taking you through the causes and results of stress and how to overcome it, The Stress Cure is a helpful, easy-to-follow guide to living a healthier, happier life. Along with comprehensive information relating to stress and nutrition, included are positive affirmation exercises, relaxation techniques, a stress log, eating plan and the 30-Day Stress Cure Programme timetable. (There’s even a blank smoking diary to help you quit!) Comprehensive, relatable and thought-provoking, The Stress Cure really does provide you with all of the tools you need to overcome stress – for good.
