Deal with it - Do what inspires (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798655505391)

Life can be full of challenges and some of those can be very tough on us, but life doesn't have to be so stressful all of the time. Stress and mental health attract major attention across the world, and it is placing a tremendous load on individuals, families, communities, organizations and countries globally. Several peer-reviewed sources note that between 75-90% of all psychological and physical illnesses can be traced back to stress as the onset. It is not the cause of illness, per se, but a catalyst. 'Deal with it - do what inspires' is based on more than 20 years of reading, research and interacting with many people from various parts of the world and in different segments of society, ranging from chief executives, to homeless people, young children and teenagers to retirees, including people from various ethnic backgrounds, and people from different religious backgrounds. Dr. Lehan Stemmet has a deep passion for seeing people achieve their full potential and to live with purpose. One of the key factors hindering this potential is stress and underdeveloped resilience. In this book Dr. Stemmet draws on his personal experience, other people's experience, scientific research and the age-old wisdom documented in the lives of people who lived during Biblical times. It aligns the scientific research, personal experiences of various people, including historical figures and principles, as a way of triangulating the coping strategies that work and have worked for millennia. Coping strategies that have consistently come out on top in various research reports across multiple samples, life domains, situations, etc. It is not overly scientific, nor overly biographical or philosophical, but rather summarizes the strategies that work by connecting those dots for the reader. Dr. Stemmet also outlines some of the difficult questions he has asked himself during challenging times, or questions that others have asked him over the years during seminars, workshops, keynote presentations, on email, in person, etc. Questions like why evil exists; the purpose of pain and suffering; the main causes of stress, etc.
