In my career as a professional speaker, the one nagging issue that members of my audiences keep bringing to my attention is the increasing difficulty of managing stress in an era with too many pressing concerns. They are vitally interested in both the health and well-being of their families and the state of the world, and they face increasing stress on all fronts. In an era that presents too many jolts too frequently, people tell me that they welcome this new and improved edition of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Managing Stress.
In one form or another, men and women from all walks of life face a similar problem: how to manage stress efficiently. CIG to Managing Stress is the crib sheet for attaining vital perspectives and proven techniques for maintaining a healthy, balanced outlook about one's self, job, family, and environment.
Unlike other books in the field but similar to other books in the Complete Idiot's Guide series, CIG to Managing Stress is easy to read and brings a smile to the reader's face. Instead of relying on a single expert, it brings together the knowledge of a wide range of experts in the field. By reading this book, you will gain insights and effective strategies for handling what has become an arduous part of daily life: keeping stress at minimal levels.

I finished this book in just about 2 hours. i skipped a large portion of it becuase it didn't apply to me. A large portion of this book focuses on career-based stress. I'm disabled, and therefore unemployed, so the career-based info just didn't fit me more. There was some helpful information i will hang onto, but overall, it just wasn't for me.

This is a great book for ideas on how to get back control of your life. If you have a extremely stressful career like I do you'll love reading the different ideas in this book. Chapter 6 covers ways to fight burnout, figuring out when you're most productive & how to deal with work overload. Chapter 16 covers mastering your environment which has lots of ideas on how to deal challenges at home & work plus ideas on how to recharge your energy. This is a great book & well worth the money!

Although I would have liked to have seen more on the topic of burnout and maybe something on the stress of raising an unruly teenager there was a lot in here on stress that I hadn't considered before. There were also some approaches to managing stress that were new to me, and of course that's always appreciated. The little boxes on every page like what a concept, etched in stone, and warning were kind clever
