Narrado por: Coleen Marlo

Modern times are stressful - and it's killing us. Unfortunately, we can't avoid the things that stress us out, but we can change how we respond to them. In this breakthrough book, a clinical psychologist and neuroscience expert offers an original approach to help listeners harness the power of positive emotions and overcome stress for good.

Stress is, unfortunately, a natural part of life - especially in our busy and hectic modern times. But you don't have to let it get in the way of your health and happiness. Studies show that the key to coping with stress is simpler than you think - it's all about how you respond to the situations and things that stress you out or threaten to overwhelm you.

The Stress-Proof Brain offers powerful, comprehensive tools based in mindfulness, neuroscience, and positive psychology to help you put a stop to unhealthy responses to stress - such as avoidance, tunnel vision, negative thinking, self-criticism, fixed mindset, and fear. Instead, you'll discover unique exercises that provide a recipe for resilience, empowering you to master your emotional responses, overcome negative thinking, and create a more tolerant, stress-proof brain.

This book will help you develop an original and effective program for mastering your emotional brain's response to stress by harnessing the power of neuroplasticity. By creating a more stress tolerant, resilient brain, you'll learn to shrug off the small stuff, deal with the big stuff, and live a happier, healthier life.

Inspiring but needs pdf’s

I really like all the tools and mindfullness skills she refers to. But without pdf’s it’s hard to memorize or keep up with it all.
Very uplifting and helpful with the tools I could remember.

Great informative book

This book gives an absolutely great insight into how stress affects your brain. As a psychologist I found it an excellent resource for patients dealing with stress. It’s packed with up to date research translated into useful information.
Thank you Dr. Greenberg for putting all this great information together.

I feel informed

This book opens your eyes to see stress in a positive way. Gives you tools to handle your stress by addressing the core. I learned a lot about self improvement and mindset.

At first I thought I didnt like it

I read two other PTSD and Complex-PTSD books before this so I thought this book was a little lacking and basic at first. However when you give it a few chapters there starts to be some real gems of advice. I recommend it.

Great book

I loved this book. Had great practice tips at the end of each section. The tips to train your brain how to deal with stress are very meaningful, easy to understand, and useful. Great book and look forward to using the tools.

Very interesting
