What a fantastic handbook! If you work eight, 10 or
even 15 hours a day, feel unappreciated, stressed-out and generally ground down by the nine to five rat-race, then you need Don't Sweat the Small Stuff at Work. It's packed from cover to cover with superb stress-busting advice, and it's also a fascinating insight into the challenges and traumas of everyday working life. Written by Dr Richard Carlson, who has a series of similar works to his name, Don't Sweat the Small Stuff at Work contains one hundred bite-size chapters with titles such as Eliminate the Rat Race Mentality, Don't Dramatize Deadlines, Stop Anticipating Tiredness, Don't Sweat the Demanding Boss, Give up Your Fear of Speaking to Groups and Learn to Delegate.

Dr Carlson's advice is witty as well as informative, and he never slips into the platitudes or home-spun philosophy that similar works fall prey to. In fewer than 300 small pages, he tells you how to transform your negative outlook on work into a positive and fulfilling one. Commuting can become a breeze, heavy workloads an opportunity to gain success, and the daily dilemmas of office life can turn into new forms of motivation. Don't Sweat the Small Stuff at Work is a dynamic, solution-based handbook, and it's also a delightfully portable paperback, perfect for your handbag or briefcase. Read and be relieved!- -Lucas LoBlack

Synopsis
In this handbook, Richard Carlson tells us how to interact more peaceably and joyfully with colleagues, clients and bosses. He provides tips on planning what to say in a meeting or presentation, taking a deep breath before reacting to a co-worker's criticism, and asking for a raise.

Easy Exercises to Relieve Stress Price check  by Hussein Eshref, Anthea Sieveking

Frances Lincoln Paperback

Amazon.co.uk
Drawn from the background of yoga, dance, osteopathy and natural movement Easy Exercises to Relieve Stress takes a careful look at the body as a whole and its reaction to any kind of stress, with the goal of reducing tension in the different muscle groups. An introduction by the author explains the different ways in which the body reacts to stress, and how the individual can pinpoint which areas need the most attention, therefore allowing readers to tailor the programme to their individual needs.

Divided into different sections, the book begins with warm-up exercises to get the circulation flowing, moves on to techniques to relax the whole body and then on to exercises which concentrate on specific areas of the body where tension accumulates, such as the neck, shoulders, back and feet. The exercises, carefully illustrated and described, are indeed as easy as the title implies and many of them will be familiar to anyone who ever has to stretch their neck, circle their feet or squeeze their shoulders together as a natural reaction to the stresses and strains of being tied to a desk in front of a computer on a daily basis. With emphasis on an holistic approach to stress management, Easy Exercises to Relieve Stress is the ideal book for anyone who is sweats at the very thought of relaxation classes, has little time, or indeed inclination, for complicated, time- consuming work-outs and who simply wants to find a way of getting a good night's sleep and coping with the day ahead. --Susan Harrison

Synopsis
With simple exercises based on an holistic approach that can be done anywhere, this text explores a range of techniques to combat stress which require minimum exertion and strength. The exercises featured include breathing exercises, stretching techniques, hydrotherapy and visualisation.
