 Insomnia be gone! July 16, 2009

This is a well organized an readable book on an affliction that all of us share to one degree or another. The book has specific guidelines on how to take steps to reduce stress that I found insightful and novel.
Perhaps my favorite feature are the audio tracks. The 6 minute track can be done anywhere at any time and I have found, can notch down my BP. The insomnia track works like no medication! I downloaded it to my iPod and put it by my bedside. Can't sleep? Put one or two buds in your ears and press play. A few minutes listening to the insomnia track and I am out for the rest of the night!
Thanks Dr. Winner!

For the price of a cd, this book with 2 cd's gives you information, inspiration and a variety of exercises and tricks to change habits which keep us in continued stress dominance. It is written by an experienced MD who understands that stress accelerates aging, wreaks havoc on the whole body and damages the physical and mental health of many people, and causes huge financial losses from sickness.

Dr. Winner's suggestions are nothing new and are available in almost every self-help or stress-management book. Unfortuantely, there is no 6 minute way to eliminate stress. There are only ways to cope with stress and those book introduces you to a handful of well known relaxation strategies....
The single best way to reduce stress in your life is to quit your job. Just a fact that for most people their job is the biggest stressor!
Everyone can profit from this book May 5, 2008

I've found Dr. Jay Winner's new book very helpful for dealing with the stresses that we all encounter in our everyday lives. The book is written in a friendly, conversational tone, the exercises are both easy to use and effective, and the price is very reasonable for a package that includes two CDs. I recommend this book to all of my university students, who certainly have to deal with a variety of new stresses in their lives, and I recommend it to you as well!
Dr. Jay Winner has done it again....... April 8, 2008

Dr. Winner's first book "stress management made simple" is one book that is always on our nightstand, the more I read it the more I get out of it. His teachings are easy to understand and really enjoyable. It won't be long before you start to benefit from the chapters.
My wife and myself are very grateful for the tools Jay has taught us, they have helped with everything from our jobs to our children and of course our marriage. A less stress out life is a better life. I have started to read "take the stress out of your life" and it looks like I better make a new spot on the nightstand.
A copy will make a wonderful gift to our daughter in college.
Thank you Dr. Jay Winner!
