SOS: Switch Off Stress: 101 Really Fast Ways (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781497583108)

Does distress cause you anxiety or contribute to physical pain, ill health or unhappiness? Medical research proves that 80% of illness is caused--or made worse--by excessive, toxic stress . If this "silent killer" is harming you, choose to SWITCH OFF STRESS instead! SOS: Switch Off Stress is a practical book that provides 101 Fast Ways to stop distress before it harms you. (All techniques are from 6 seconds to six minutes.) This book contains hundreds of references to easy instructional videos, audios, websites and other excellent resources that will help you regain your good health and sense of happiness, well-being and balance. This print version of SOS has an accompanying web site with direct links to all the resources it references (go to http: //www.thecoreporation.com/sos_links). SOS is based on the global template for balance and well-being, i.e., the center and the four directions. To learn more about SOS and/or to discover which one of six possible kinds of stress most adversely affects you, take the Free Stress Quiz at www.thecoreporation.com. THE PROBLEM: You probably KNOW that you're stressed and have heard all the dire warnings about what could happen if you ignore this problem. However, you're also likely to be discouraged because stress relief activities take too much time out of your already-packed days. So, you may wind up not doing ANYTHING at all-why? Because you're already too stressed!! In fact, it may feel as if beating distress is an "all or nothing" game you keep losing because you're missing some key information about how to play and win. TO THE RESCUE! SOS serves as a rapid response team that helps rise to the challenge of stress by doing SOMETHING-right now-wherever you are-no matter how little time you have-to relieve the anxiety or pain you're feeling. WHAT MAKES THIS BOOK SPECIAL? -SOS offers a treasure chest of well-tested techniques: This book contains a wide array of really fast stress-busters from a variety of cultures and traditions. My colleagues, clients and I have tried these all these tools and found them highly useful. -You can try it before you buy it by taking a Free Stress Quiz. -SOS activities are really fast: 6 seconds to 6 minutes--and you can cut that to no time at all by: a) integrating SOS actions into other tasks (working, walking, and waiting); or, b) replacing inefficient, bad habits with SOS's more functional responses. -Shows where you can learn more: SOS provides links to excellent resources so you can delve deeper into the tools you most like. YOU WILL BENEFIT FROM THIS BOOK IF YOU: -Have too much stress and would like to do something effective to reduce it. -Prefer a practical guide with detailed instructions about how-to meet the daily challenges of stress. -Want to help friends or family members stop worrying so they can become more relaxed and happy. -Are a professional caregiver (health care provider, therapist, coach, counselor, trainer, leader/manager, HR professional, teacher). -Want to transform your life so you become more balanced, healthy, happy, loving, courageous, intuitive, and creative-i.e., your best possible self. BACKGROUND: SOS: Switch Off Stress is based on The Balancing Act: Mastering the 5 Elements of Success in Life, Relationships, and Work. For the past decade, many professionals have used The Balancing Act (TBA) processes in their fields (business consultants, therapists, health care providers, teachers, and executive, life or career coaches). Both TBA and SOS are organized around the universal holistic healing template of the center and the four directions (i.e., the 5 Elements of Success and Synergy). The Balancing Act teaches a powerful, step-by-step evolutionary process that helps you improve your health, resilience, creativity, effectiveness, and happiness by strengthening and aligning all of the Elements of Success.
