Full Description
Write Your Stress Away: Learning to Tame the Tension in Your Life is unlike any other writing book on the market. For the first time, readers are offered four simple steps to achieve the results promised by the title of this book.
Combined, the steps take only 60 minutes, after which readers will feel immediate results as they
move from a state of stress and emotional discomfort to one of increased confidence and
relaxation. With each session, the body, mind and emotional state will reach new levels of calm,
clarity, and healing.
This book is an outgrowth of the authors' personal and professional experiences using writing to relieve stress. The practice of "writing through stress" helped them navigate their daily challenges,
and when Diane was diagnosed with breast cancer and Sue with diabetes, this powerful process
boosted their ability to overcome the challenges of those testing times. When they shared their
technique with others, they were gratified to learn that their friends, colleagues, and later, clients,
also benefited from this unique approach to stress management and relief. "Life is strife," some say, and of course, everyone experiences stress, whether it's short-term (acute) or longer-term (chronic).
