Publisher's summary

Today, stress is more prevalent. It is a day-to-day pressure that consumes our work, relationships, sleep, and happiness. On the inside, stress causes muscle tension, exacerbating respiratory problems, increasing our heart rate and blood pressure, and ultimately increasing our risk of chronic diseases like diabetes, cancer, and heart disease. Our fight or flight response is on overdrive, stress hormones rush around our body, and even our stomach notices the impact of stress.

Even worse, all this is automatic — we have no control over it! Or do we? While we may not be able to control our body’s reaction to stress, we can control how we respond to stress, even reducing the horrendous impact it has. Managing your stress is a skill that will serve you for the rest of your life. While typical stress-relieving techniques may not have served you in the past, it doesn’t mean you can’t succeed now. You are one step away from first understanding what stress is doing to your body and then making simple, small changes to your lifestyle that will develop into healthy habits so that stress doesn’t rule you. Stress isn’t going anywhere, but you can stop it from taking away the best, most enjoyable moments in your life.

Helpful guide!

This book is an ideal investigation of the ubiquitous test of pressure in our lives. It distinctively delineates how stress penetrates our everyday presence, influencing both our physical and mental prosperity.

The book reveals insight into the programmed idea of stress reactions yet in addition underscores our capacity to control our responses. It gives down to earth experiences and significant stages to actually oversee pressure. This book is an important asset for me who trying to recapture command over my life and track down snapshots of joy in the midst of the disarray.

Bound by stress is a must-peruse for anybody like me hoping to face and overcome the pressure that takes steps to eclipse their best minutes.

Take a chill pill

This book is great and very informative. The way it explains how stress is perceptive trigger rather than an environment one. I know that I had really bad road rage. I mean yelling until I had headaches bad. All I did was leave earlier. I used to be 10 minutes before and now I'm 20 minutes early so slow-drivers don't affect me.

Impactful!

An impactful, well-researched guide that is sure to help you identify your stress, understand what its doing to you, and actionable steps you can take to get back to living instead of surviving. A refreshing approach as it gives you many tips, techniques, and knowledge to take control of your stress. Many books just educate you about it but lack the "how-to" principle. Would definitely recommend

Insightful and Full of Solid Actionable Advise

You don't realize in the day to day exactly how much the elements of your daily life connect and drive each other. This book connects the dots and,specifically relating to stress, peels back the veneer to address the direct impact of how we respond to the stress we carry and how we can begin to guide ourselves to better manage it. Great information for any adult managing stress in their life. AKA EVERYONE.

Very helpful

The book had much better help inside than I previously thought. Easy action steps. But also included how our nervous system operates and strategies through the mass. The author also addressed that our bodies are complex but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try. And so many tips and tricks inside. Great book.

Very Helpful! Highly Recommended!

"Bound By Stress" by Karen Davidge is an excellent listen. It's a comprehensive guide that will help you identify the source of your stress, learn how it's affecting your life, and take effective measures to alleviate its effects. It is a revitalizing approach to learn so many effective ways to manage stress. About the narration, the narrator also did a fantastic job that adds to the overall experience. All in all, the topic, as well as the narration, seemed to be an ideal match for one another. Would definitely recommend!
