Stress Management

Ione Goodhart has written a great book with a ton of information. Jane Ghazni has done a wonderful job narrating it. My wife and i listen to the book together and took copious notes. The narration was at the perfect speed and structure to allow us to take notes and have to pause and/or rewind very little. Great Job.

This book is full of tons of information on managing stress. The guide to stress management workbook and the journal prompts throughout the book are a great addition.

The book does an amazing job helping you deal with stress and the fight, flight and freeze response typical with stress. We were particularly intrigued by the part of the book dealing with brain fog and how to eliminate that. If you tune in to your body as Ione Goodhart says you can eliminate brain fog altogether.

We always knew that meditation was something we should be doing but we never really understood the link between our nerves and physical, mental and emotional state. Thanks to this book and it teaching us how to tap into our Vagus nerve we feel ready improve our emotional well-being but also tap into its healing power.

This is a great book with a lot of valuable information. We highly recommend it.

It's fascinating to me to learn why and how these things work - it makes the application of self-healing that much more tangible. This is a great audiobook that deserves multiple plays.
