Befriending Stress to Neutralize its Danger

A stranger walks onto a crowded street and starts shooting everyone in sight.

If the streets are not safe, then where can someone go?

The bullet may not kill us, but the danger the situation brings to us and our loved ones, Is something we need to face day in and day out?

There is danger everywhere: commuting to work, driving a car, eating at a restaurant, purchasing groceries, or even sitting at home.

So, you have to be on guard all the time.

And that brings us stress because whatever we do or don't do, we are in danger.

We can't influence or control criminals or any stranger and tell them to adhere to the rules.

The only recourse we have is to silence our minds instead of falling prey to worries and anxiety.

How do we do that?

This book offers a solution, where you have a clear understanding of what is stress all about, how to use stress as our friend, how to understand the complexities in the manifestation of stress, and how stress is misunderstood.

In my experience as a psychologist for the last four decades, I have come across thousands of people who seek help in overcoming their stress.

However, reducing stress is not a solution because we need the stress to be efficient in our daily affairs.

We always hope to be relaxed but when we see a relaxed individual we call that person lazy.

Isn't this a paradox?

Your stress level has to be higher to fulfill the demands that modernity brings. Right from purchasing groceries to managing work pressures, stress creeps in everywhere.

There is no clear understanding of the types of stress and degrees of stress. This lacking has resulted in considering stress as an enemy.

This book attempts to provide a way to use stress positively so that it benefits us.

So, let us proceed to befriend stress and neutralize its danger.
