Book excerpt: Stress is always going to be a part of life, but how we handle it can make all the difference. Westerners consider life a challenge, full of obstacles to be overcome and problems to be solved, while Eastern wisdom teaches harmony with nature rather than opposition to it. Once we realize that stumbling blocks can actually become stepping stones, life becomes more fulfilling. After traveling extensively in the Far East and studying for years in Buddhist monasteries and with well-known Zen Masters, Dr. Arthur Sokoloff, known as the "Zen Dentist," has found the perfect antidote--inner serenity. Here, Dr. Sokoloff gently guides us through the basic tenets of the four major Eastern philosophies--Taoism, traditional Buddhism, Zen Buddhism, and Confucianism--and shows us how to integrate their wisdom into our everyday lives to combat anxiety and achieve inner serenity.--From publisher description.

Book excerpt: Drawing from groundbreaking research, psychologist and award-winning teacher Kelly McGonigal, PhD, offers a surprising new view of stress—one that reveals the upside of stress, and shows us exactly how to capitalize on its benefits. You hear it all the time: stress causes heart disease; stress causes insomnia; stress is bad for you! But what if changing how you think about stress could make you happier, healthier, and better able to reach your goals? Combining exciting new research on resilience and mindset, Kelly McGonigal, PhD, proves that undergoing stress is not bad for you; it is undergoing stress while believing that stress is bad for you that makes it harmful. In fact, stress has many benefits, from giving us greater focus and energy, to strengthening our personal relationships. McGonigal shows readers how to cultivate a mindset that embraces stress, and activate the brain's natural ability to learn from challenging experiences. Both practical and life-changing, The Upside of Stress is not a guide to getting rid of stress, but a toolkit for getting better at it—by understanding, accepting, and leveraging it to your advantage.

Book excerpt: #1 New York Times Bestseller REVISED WITH NEW MATIERAL Winner of the 2014 Living Now Book Award for Inspirational Memoir "An enormously smart, clear-eyed, brave-hearted, and quite personal look at the benefits of meditation." —Elizabeth Gilbert Nightline anchor Dan Harrisembarks on an unexpected, hilarious, and deeply skeptical odyssey through the strange worlds of spirituality and self-help, and discovers a way to get happier that is truly achievable. After having a nationally televised panic attack, Dan Harris knew he had to make some changes. A lifelong nonbeliever, he found himself on a bizarre adventure involving a disgraced pastor, a mysterious self-help guru, and a gaggle of brain scientists. Eventually, Harris realized that the source of his problems was the very thing he always thought was his greatest asset: the incessant, insatiable voice in his head, which had propelled him through the ranks of a hypercompetitive business, but had also led him to make the profoundly stupid decisions that provoked his on-air freak-out. Finally, Harris stumbled upon an effective way to rein in that voice, something he always assumed to be either impossible or useless: meditation, a tool that research suggests can do everything from lower your blood pressure to essentially rewire your brain. 10% Happier takes readers on a ride from the outer reaches of neuroscience to the inner sanctum of network news to the bizarre fringes of America’s spiritual scene, and leaves them with a takeaway that could actually change their lives.

If you’re like most people, you probably think that stress is an inevitable part of life. The truth is: it’s not. In a groundbreaking 30-year study, Dr. Derek Roger has discovered that everything we think we know about stress—and how we should “manage” it—is just plain wrong. STRESS IS A CHOICE. It is not a natural response to the pressures of work. It’s a choice that you make, consciously or not, to worry and fret and agonize over the work you need to do—instead of just doing it. WORK DOESN’T HAVE TO BE STRESSFUL FOR YOU TO BE SUCCESSFUL. This book offers a radically different approach to stress. It’s about being resilient. Flexible. Mentally awake and in the moment.

The techniques you’ll find in this book are powerful, practical, and proven to work—without stress. A revolutionary approach to preventing stress that is evidence-based, life-changing, and scientifically proven to work Why do some people get stressed while others stay calm, cool, and collected under pressure? According to renowned stress researcher Dr. Derek Roger, the answer lies in resilience—your ability to cope with challenges and thrive under adversity—rather than ruminating and obsessing over them. In lab-controlled studies, he discovered that the key to “managing” stress is to stop it before it starts. To be resilient, flexible, and ready for anything. The culmination of three decades of research, this book presents a practical and proven program of simple step-by-step techniques that you can use to: • Adjust your mindset and work more efficiently • Control your response to any kind of pressure • Detach and let go of negative thoughts • Put things in perspective and focus on what matters • Develop a stress-free leadership style • Build more resilient teams and organizations • Give constructive feedback and communicate effectively • Differentiate between caring (useful) and worrying (useless) • Open your mind to new approaches and ideas • Reach higher levels of success—without all the stress Warning: This is not another stress management book. It’s not about finding time to relax. It’s about cultivating resilience—the ability to negotiate the rapids of life without being swept away. It’s about reprogramming your emotional responses to high-pressure situations and breaking the self-defeating habits that do nothing but increase your levels of stress. In this book, you’ll find case-by-case studies and day-to-day techniques to help you readjust your attitude from the moment you wake up. You’ll discover essential tools for a stress-free life, including 3 questions to ask in a crisis, 4 steps to handle everyday pressures, and 8 behaviors that alleviate stress instantly.
