Everyone experiences stress in their lives. While it is a natural response to challenges, stress can have debilitating effects on both physical and mental health. Stress Management offers a fresh look at, and effective strategies for, managing stress and building resilience across six dimensions of wellness: physical, emotional, intellectual, social, spiritual, and environmental. This foundational text takes a holistic approach to managing stress, detailing the effects of stress on the body and outlining techniques that examine root causes and proactive responses to stressors.

Stress Management offers a range of coping strategies that will help students formulate a well-rounded plan to tackle stress from multiple angles--before it occurs, while it is occurring, and after it occurs. That model is centered on four primary pillars:

  • Source management--reducing or eliminating stress at its source
  • Relaxation--employing techniques for breathing, meditation, and rest to focus the mind and relax the body
  • Thought management--adopting a thought process to better manage the stressor
  • Prevention--avoiding stress when possible
The book also offers practical tools to help students learn how to identify their triggers, practice self-care, and leverage support, including knowing when to seek professional help when necessary. To further aid in applying the strategies to their own lives, the text includes these features:
  • Case studies with discussion questions that prompt students to consider real-world scenarios and contemplate ways to solve those stressors
  • Research Spotlight elements that present current issues and hot topics related to stress
  • Online learning tools, delivered through HKPropel, including audio mini lectures and short interviews, self-discovery activities, chapter quizzes that are automatically graded and provide immediate feedback, and vocabulary flash cards and quizzes
Stress Management is a timely and highly practical book that offers students a deeper understanding of stress and its effects on overall wellness. It guides them in putting together a stress management plan that will help them be healthy in all aspects of their lives.
