It's very informative but not in a dry, "here's some information, let me make it as uninteresting as possible" sort of way. It comes with a CD of meditations that I have had to use for class, the meditations cover a variety of methods so you are able to find one that works. Review: Some of the self reflection activities are excellent but I wouldn't say that it's worth pulling the ... - There is a lot of homeopathic advice in this book that may not suit many individuals. The author assumes certain financial expectations. Some of the content is just plain wrong if you look at research within the last 10 years and the lessons are kind of hokey. Some of the self reflection activities are excellent but I wouldn't say that it's worth pulling the trigger based on the few activities I found interesting. You're probably buying this because it's a requirement for class. If you have any friends in the class, share the book. There isn't enough content here to bother having your own copy. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 3.3 out of 5 stars 19 Reviews | ## Images ![Essentials Of Managing Stress - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61A4COoI2tL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good book, great meditation CD included *by P***O on 15 November 2014* This is one of the better textbooks I've had to read.

The exercises reinforce the information offered in each chapter. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/717295030-essentials-of-managing-stress](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/717295030-essentials-of-managing-stress) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-05*
