The Relaxation & Stress Reduction Workbook http://addcopingskills.com/2011/12/the-relaxation-stress-reduction-workbook/ http://addcopingskills.com/2011/12/the-relaxation-stress-reduction-workbook/#comments Tue, 13 Dec 2011 17:22:19 +0000 admin http://addcopingskills.com/2011/12/the-relaxation-stress-reduction-workbook/

Since its first publication in 1980, The Relaxation and Stress Reduction Workbook has become the most indispensable resource for effective and up-to-date techniques for relaxing the body, calming the mind, and refreshing the spirit. Therapists recommend the book to their clients; readers pass it on to their friends. More than half a million copies have helped millions of people just like you take the edge off their stressful lives and find the peace they need to foster happiness and success.

The overwhelming popularity of this book is the result of its comprehensive yet simple and straightforward adaptation of all the most effective relaxation techniques. No other book offers easy-to-use, step-by-step instructions for using progressive relaxation, autogenics, self-hypnosis, visualization, thought stopping, worry control and the list goes on. If it means relaxation, it’s in this book.

“An exemplary book on stress; it is lucidly written, it is rationally ordered, it is comprehensive, and each section is densely packed with instructions and exercises which make the workbook easy to practice.”
-Somatics Magazine The Journal of the Bodily Arts and Sciences

“It is relaxing just to read this book, and to know so many techniques are at hand in one place…one of the most complete and intelligent compilations I’ve seen.”
-Dr. Harold Greenwald, author of “Direct Decision Therapy”

“An excellent resource for putting together your own tailor-made approach to dealing with stress.” -Medical Self-Care

“A delightful documentation of some of the important work done in the field of stress reduction. It should have wide appeal for workers in this area.”
-Dr. Thomas Holmes, originator of the widely used “Schedule of Recent Experience”

“A highly usable tool because of its pen and paper exercises, descriptions of relaxation techniques, and discussions of lifestyle management.”
-Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy

“Regarded by many professionals as the definitive work pertaining to stress…the authors have carefully crafted, tested, and proven a system that works.”
-Hypnotherapy Today

“If you are shopping for the best stress management techniques and strategies available, The Relaxation & Stress Reduction Workbook is like a well-stocked supermarket. If you don’t resonate with one technique, just turn the page. You are sure to find some that work for you…. The Relaxation & Stress Reduction Workbook is the best practical guide to stress management.”
-The Mental Medicine Update: The Mind/Body Medicine Newsletter

“The authors have contributed their expertise and teaching experience to offer us an impressive documentation of techniques in stress reduction. The writing in this workbook is crystal clear…I highly recommend this workbook to the practitioner as well as the lay public as a source of self-help.”
-Dr. Maurice Kouguell, certified clinical hypnotherapistAlthough the sheer size of this dense workbook might cause initial hyperventilation–280 full-size sheets of text–take heart (and a deep breath!): the many self-assessment tools and calming techniques presented in this fifth edition can help overcome anxiety and promote physical and emotional well-being. First introduced in 1980, the book received praise for presenting a comprehensive look at stress, its physical manifestations, and the multiple ways it can be managed. Twenty years later, its well-organized chapters on breathing, relaxation, meditation, thought stopping, and body awareness still guide the reader through copious self-help techniques to try and, eventually, master. Other chapters, including job stress management, goal setting and time management, and assertiveness training, focus on daily scenarios people often find distressing. Lessons in identifying key elements that trigger unpleasant responses and in reacting differently to these elements are designed to defuse perceived conflicts. For this edition, coauthors Martha Davis (psychologist in the Department of Psychiatry of Kaiser Permanente Medical Center, Santa Clara, CA), Elizabeth Robbins Eshelman (licensed clinical social worker with Kaiser Permanente Online), and Matthew McKay (clinical director of Haight-Ashbury Psychological Services, San Francisco, CA) have added topics on worry control, anger management, and eye-movement therapy. New diagrams and a more reader-friendly format should appeal to readers, despite a few typos and graphical mishaps. This is a valuable tool for therapists, their patients, and the stressed-at-large. –Liane Thomas

Children pay close attention to their parents’ moods. When parents feel upset, their kids may become anxious, and when parents wind down, children also get the chance to relax. When you feel overwhelmed and stressed, it can be hard to help your child feel balanced. The Relaxation & Stress Reduction Workbook for Kids, written by two child therapists, offers more than fifty activities you can do together as a family to help you and your child replace stressful and anxious feelings with feelings of optimism, confidence, and joy.

You’ll learn proven relaxation techniques, including deep breathing, guided imagery, mindfulness, and yoga, and then receive guidance for teaching them to your child. Your child will also discover how taking time to do art and creative projects can create a sense of fulfillment and calm. By completing just one ten-minute activity from this workbook each day, you’ll make relaxation a family habit that will stay with both you and your child for a lifetime.

Evidence is accumulating that in many contemporary work environments people are literally working themselves to death. But what do we really know about job-related stress and illness? Based on a ten-year study of nearly five thousand workers, this path-breaking book by a distinguished industrial engineer and sociologist and a specialist in industrial medicine identifies a clear connection between work-related illness and workers’ lack of participation in the design and outcome of their labors.

“The concept of energy and the flow of that energy in the human body is the core of the current explosion in healing. The healing principle is to “balance” the energy in the body by using relaxation to counter the body’s reaction to stress.” The Berkeley Holistic Health Center

The High Energy Life Plan integrates all the tools for living a healthy, balanced life. Many times busy people will see or read something that they would love to integrate into their lives. They also lack the time to plan and execute a total health plan.

The Life Plan includes food/diet choices, exercise choices, and emotional/mental techniques for stress reduction. All the pre-tests, measurements, references for each of the three categories (diet, exercise, and emotional/mental tools) are given.

Our goal is that each person using the High Energy Life Plan can create and continually change her/his health plan. Health takes effort to maintain. Each of us needs to know what we need to attain our highest level of health.

Your plan will include mental, physical and emotional exercises that you can use for the rest of your life because a total life make-over is needed to get and stay healthy.

1) Our program includes affirmations, assertiveness, being centered, breathing exercises, cognitive reframing, communication, creativity, exercise, empowerment, food program, goal setting, guided imagery, journaling, meditation, mindfulness, muscle relaxation, nutrition, relaxation, support program, time management, transactional analysis, and yoga.

2) Daily we are experiencing an overload of information. By using RSS feeds, we have become accustomed to “sound bites”. So the High Energy Diet contains many descriptive links so you may use the individual information that you choose. So instead of our publishing a book for you, we have published all the information links that you can choose to create your own, individual book to use for your High Energy Life.

3) While researching for this High Energy Life Library, we found hundreds of books which were each filled with good direction. The problem is that we have less and less time to devote to even our own improvement. So we knew that short, to-the-point weight management techniques would be a time-saver and motivator to even the busiest person. So we offer these books as a basis for lifelong health program.

4) In summary, you may choose: the food program you choose, the exercise that you love, the emotional techniques to help you learn how to relax into stress, and the mental disciplines needed to focus your energy on the things you can change.
