Synopsis
A self-help book by the author of "Coping with Anxiety and Depression".

It also aims to clear up misunderstandings - sufferers often think something serious is happening, such as a heart attack, and feel that doctors are not taking it seriously. The causes of hyperventilation and how it affects the body and the nervous system is looked at, and also triggering allergies, food intolerance and chronic pain. The book advises about how to acknowledge the source of symptoms, re-train breathing and get to the roots of the problem. |

Creating a Stress-free Office Price check by Jim Welch, Simon Priest
Usually dispatched in 2-3 days
Published 1998
Gower Publishing Limited Paperback
Synopsis
This workbook starts with the premise that stress is damaging to the organization as a whole and that effective stress prevention will only happen if people work together to understand stress, audit its causes and symptoms and act to deal with its impact. The authors describe the technique of "innoculating your staff against stress" and place it amongst the other core skills and responsibilities of the manager or team leader. Using a mixture of facts, techniques, cartoons and illustrations, questionnaires, quizzes, exercises and games, the authors provide the means to: understand what stress is and what responsiblities your organization has under the law; identify the precise causes of stress within your own team and develop strategies for reducing their impact; recognize the symptoms of stress in your team and understand the role you have supporting individuals; and understand the four main strands to reducing stress and how to apply them in the workplace. This text is aimed at managers and team-leaders at all levels, for self-study, and trainers for use in conjunction with formal courses - whether in-company or external. |
