Stress Can Be Deadly. It Is Now An Epidemic In America. Dr. Don Colbert, MD is a best-selling author, dynamic speaker, and board-certified family practice physician. He lived, walked through, and overcame extreme stress himself. In Stress Less, he uses scientific evidence, testimonies of patients, biblical principles, and practical proven theories to challenge and encourage you to make lifelong changes for overcoming stress. He also explains why this epidemic of stress is out of control, and he explains how stress is the culprit behind many debilitating and killer diseases. Until now there has not been a book that has offered "all the pieces of the puzzle" about stress. Stress Less addresses stress from a mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual standpoint. THIS BOOK ANSWERS MANY IMPORTANT QUESTIONS: - What leads to adrenal fatigue?
- How does cortisol really affect your body?
- Are your relationships stressful?
- Do you rehash hurtful memories?
- How can using relaxation and exercise help reduce your physical, mental, and emotional strain?
- How can you experience the peace of God?
“Don Colbert provides amazing insights into healthy living. The information he shares has influenced my lifestyle with great results. Let it do the same for you!” -- Joyce Meyer, best-selling author and speaker Reader Comments "Dr. Colbert walks a fine line in this book - he empathizes with his patients' and readers' stresses in the modern world, yet shows them ways their own thought patterns can contribute to the stress and ways that changing their thoughts and behaviors can reduce the stress, while not telling them, 'It's all in your head.' His suggestions for reducing stress are practical and easy to understand, and they work! I've tried some already, and can affirm that they have helped. Some of parts I found most helpful included the ways that people with "passive" or "aggressive" personalities can become "assertive" without being obnoxious, ways to lighten worry, and the importance of setting aside grudges. The exercise and diet tips were also helpful, as was the study of adrenal fatigue.
I also liked the stories of Biblical figures (especially Abraham) from the perspective of their worry and stress - it's a fascinating, fresh and sometimes humorous way to look at the familiar stories. |
"This book is written for anyone who struggles with the scourge of stress and feels that their life is spinning out of control as a result. After reading this book, I was immediately filled with hope and strength, secure in the knowledge that with prayer, and following Dr. Colbert's spirit-filled suggestions, I will be able to effectively manage stress in my life.
This is not some cheesey self-help book that promises that your life will be all sunshine and roses. Rather, it is a practical, scientific, as well as spiritual look at one of the most nefarious public health menaces of this modern age: STRESS!!!!" |
