EP 1,163B - Stressilient: How to Beat Stress and Build Resilience
Stress. It’s everywhere these days: a cry for help, the answer to why illnesses pop up (or won’t go away), an issue for students and workers, and a culprit when it comes to everything from car accidents to weight gain. Stress is one of those problems most of us are left to figure out and solve by ourselves (a warm bath with scented candle only goes so far). Dr. Sam Akbar walks worried readers through how to calm themselves in her book Stressilient: How to Beat Stress and Build Resilience (published by St. Martin’s Essentials (St Martin’s Publishing Group).
