Identify and manage stress with this practical, seven-step programme by bestselling author and GP, Dr Harry Barry

In the world we live in, stress comes from a multiple number of sources, including pressures at work, relationship difficulties and illness. Most people can usually take what life throws at them; but when stress builds up, it can overwhelm an individual and lead to potentially serious health problems.

Toxic stress is an indispensable tool on coping with the stresses of modern life. By identifying the different kinds of stress and in particular the dangers of 'toxic' stress, Dr Barry shows us how to discover where our stress is coming from and how we can effectively confront, manage and reduce it in our lives.

Previously published as Flagging Stress: Toxic Stress and How to Avoid It, this edition has been fully revised and updated.
