As someone who has quite a bit of "stress" in their life, this seemed like a very intriguing read - and it went beyond my expectations.

I've been loving books that make me want to be a better person and strive to improve my mental and physical wellbeing. I wanted to savor each chapter of this book and each idea given, because I felt more resilient to my day-to-day stress by shifting my mindset into looking at the categories of positive and negative stress.

In a world where everyone seems to strive to be "zen" and "stress-free" this was really refreshing to see how "good stress" can help our resilience, and how we as humans are built to handle it if we can train our bodies and minds to see it differently and seek out a balance.

I feel more balanced, and I look forward to a re-read.

I am definitely going to gift this book to some family and friends upon release. I will also post more thoughts on Instagram/YouTube/Amazon on release day!

I like this book! There was a lot that was called out as tips and advice, but was not really proven, but more like speculation... I think that there were still some pretty valuable tips and advice here in this book. I liked the way it looked at stress as a big picture and looking at it as a whole, not as "zoomed in" as we usually do

Thank you to NetGalley, to the author, and to the publisher for this complementary ARC in exchange for my honest review!!!
