Book - Child
"Ayer considers the causes and effects of stress in contemporary life and presents approaches to its management. The most critical 'stressors' for teens, such as family problems, trouble at school or with peers, and physical changes that accompany adolescence, are discussed at length. Suggestions are given as to how these and other pressures can be controlled and converted into positive forces. The author takes a self-help approach in this easy-to-read title and recommends good nutrition, a regular schedule, prioritizing of responsibilities, planning, and goal setting. The verbalizing of anxieties and fears, exercise, yoga, and meditation are also prescribed. However, readers may be left with the impression that far-reaching life-style changes are easily achievable-a simplistic and possibly dangerous message..." [--Libby K.
