It is our mission to help you learn how to adopt [new] strategies and turn stress into a positive force in your life." ?from the IntroductionStress can limit our perspective, leaving us feeling trapped and out of control. But stress can also be a force for good: It is our challenges that most compel us to reach out for relationship. And our proudest moments come after overcoming obstacles we thought were insurmountable.Based on personal experience and their work as therapists, and drawing on decades of psychological research, George R.
