Document Summary
Comprehensive stress management empowers students to learn what stress is, assess their stress level and apply the tools and skills needed to manage the stress to their own lives. Will see within the book we read this semester. The book discusses a variety of topics important to college students, such as intrapersonal and interpersonal stressors, physiological stress responses, faith and stress, workplace stress and family stress. At the conclusion of each chapter, laboratory assessments help students relate what they have learned to their personal lives by encouraging them to identify specific attitudes, behaviors and coping skills and target areas for improvement. Incorporates numerous improvements and enhancements while still maintaining the material and functionality enjoyed in previous editions by teachers and students. Stress is a fact of life, no matter where you are and whatever you do. You can"t avoid tension but you can learn how to handle it so it won"t overwhelm you.
