The Stress Overload Solution: A Breakthrough Program that Trains Your Brain for Better Moods, Habits, Relationships, and Productivity

by Laurel Mellin

A landmark book on stress overload! Our hunter-gatherer brain is overwhelmed with stress, causing circuits to be encoded that trigger problems with mood, habits, relationships, and productivity. The solution to these problems is to go to the root cause: the circuit. It is based on Emotional Brain Training (EBT), an evidence-based method to change the wires that trigger stress-fueled problems and to prevent relapse. This book is like three books in one. Start by identifying your brain's stress style, the underlying need that your brain is seeking to fulfill by triggering these responses. Want more? Next, use simple emotional tools to deactivate the wire on the spot, and feel better faster. Last, to prevent relapse, discover the circuits that cause these problems and rewire them to prevent relapse and promote lasting results. This book impacts all aspects of life in significant and meaningful ways - and reading it can change your life!

I got a much better idea of what my issues have been and how to address them. This book is written in normal English, not in medical jargon. It is easy to understand.
