Feeling stressed?
You're not alone. Stress is an inherent aspect of life that can have tremendous negative effects on your mental and physical health. This makes coping with stress a critical part of how well we live.
Once you understand the inner workings of your stress response system, you'll possess powerful knowledge that will help you understand and better deal with this common aspect of your busy life. Now, from one of the world's foremost researchers on stress and neurobiology, comes a fascinating series of 24 lectures that guide you through the psychological and psychosocial stress that is a central part of everyday life in Western society.
You'll learn how the stress-response system is actually a natural survival system-giving, for example, a zebra the best chance to escape from a pursuing lion - that can change from a safety mechanism into a real problem for our physical and mental well-being. You'll see it coming into play against situations it wasn't designed to combat, such as traffic, troublesome thoughts and memories, and concerns over the economy, environment, and international events. And you'll gain valuable insights into how and why stress can affect every part of your body-including your cardiovascular, digestive, and immune systems - and learn about its relationship to important disorders and behaviors, like depression, anxiety, and even addiction.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Would you consider the audio edition of Stress and Your Body to be better than the print version?
Don't know, but I personally prefer audio books... So I would guess yes.What did you like best about this story?
The way in which science was explained in stories.What about Professor Robert Sapolsky’s performance did you like?
Amazing reader, loved his tone and funny jokes. Really couldn't image this being read by anyone else.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The information on stress and PFC function and stress and socio-economic status. Very moving.Any additional comments?
I am a neuroscientist looking at the influence of psycho social stress on various systems in the body. I admit that this book was nerd heaven for me, but could see how the layman may find the information overwhelming.It was so good I will have to listen to it again!
