Dr's.Steve Amoils and Sandi Amoils call on their patients and readers to do more than just cope with stress. They outline diagnostic algorithms to help you both understand how stressed you are, as well as how to manage your stress state. Their "Stress Curve" outlines 5 stages of stress -Exhilarated;Wired and Tired; Exhausted; Exhausted and Inflamed and Dis-eased; overwhelmed and depleted.
They then go into great length discussing techniques to both reduce stress, as well as to "transform stress into success." Their techniques address both acute stress, and what they call "transformational moments," as well as chronic stress.
