ABOUT THE BOOK
EDITORIAL REVIEW
The majority of doctor visits are for stress-related disorders, which can include obesity, heart disease, chronic pain, depression, and infertility. Drawing from more than two decades treating the physical and psychological effects of stress, Dr. Jay Winner clearly lays out how to control the condition through a series of lifestyle modifications, simple mental exercises, and relaxation techniques-without resorting to pills or overwhelming life changes. With two CDs that walk you through stress-reduction exercises, implementing these techniques is fast, effective, and easy to do. For anyone suffering from negative stress, Take the Stress out of Your Life is the ultimate guide for coping with unanticipated stressful situations and creating a long-term plan for permanent stress relief.
USER REVIEWS
"Dr. Winner's suggestions are nothing new and are available in almost every self-help or stress-management book. Unfortuantely, there is no 6 minute way to eliminate stress. There are only ways to cope with stress and those book introduces you to a handful of well known relaxation strategies....
The single best way to reduce stress in your life is to quit your job. Just a fact that for most people their job is the biggest stressor!"

"I've found Dr. Jay Winner's new book very helpful for dealing with the stresses that we all encounter in our everyday lives. The book is written in a friendly, conversational tone, the exercises are both easy to use and effective, and the price is very reasonable for a package that includes two CDs. I recommend this book to all of my university students, who certainly have to deal with a variety of new stresses in their lives, and I recommend it to you as well!"

"Dr. Winner's first book "stress management made simple" is one book that is always on our nightstand, the more I read it the more I get out of it. His teachings are easy to understand and really enjoyable. It won't be long before you start to benefit from the chapters.
My wife and myself are very grateful for the tools Jay has taught us, they have helped with everything from our jobs to our children and of course our marriage. A less stress out life is a better life. I have started to read "take the stress out of your life" and it looks like I better make a new spot on the nightstand.
A copy will make a wonderful gift to our daughter in college.
Thank you Dr. Jay Winner!"

"This book is worth every minute of your stressed lives. As a family practitioner, Dr. Winner takes a path not usually taken by a medical doctor. He looks at the root of illness and disease rather than simply prescribing medicine. His focus in this book is on helping people minimize stress that may be contributing to their dis-ease. There are numerous real life scenarios of stressful situations and practical tools on ways to ease the stress, manage anger and frustration and relax and enjoy life more.
The chapters on mindfulness address common misconceptions about meditation and illustrate how these skills can turn aggravating, stressful situations into more positive experiences. There are even places in the book to write down your own reflections and to assess your current lifestyle.
But if you're too stressed to read another book on stress management, open the back cover and listen to the two CD's. You might just improve your sleep, enhance your communication skills, love more, feel healthier and enjoy each day to the fullest.
