SYNOPSIS: Many women feel under pressure, as they frantically try to satisfy the demands of the many roles they must play. Women and Stress takes a close look at the most common causes of stress among women--in their personal lives as ell as in the workplace--and gives strategies for dealing with this pervasive destroyer of joy and serenity. Sit down, relax, and read the book that can change women's lives for the better! Dr. Charmaine Saunders, noted for her work in personal development, invites women to become aware of the role they play in their own health and discusses choices, risks, self-knowledge, independence, and goals. Beginning with an explanation of stress and its effects, Dr. Saunders reviews the seven ages of woman--childhood, the teenage years, the twenties, thirties, forties, the mature years, and the final years of aging. She explores relationships, the single life, sexuality, and work, emphasizing the particular stresses inherent in each area. Providing many strategies for coping with stress, Dr. Saunders shows how to deal with the successes as well as the risks women encounter. Women and Stress speaks to all women, in every walk of life. Factors such as personality type, socioeconomic background and levels of intelligence will bring different responses from women in similar circumstances. This book offers perspectives and insights that will ring true with all women, despite these differences. A knowledge of the stress factors that nibble away a woman's energy levels, accompanied by self-knowledge and an awareness of goals, helps women respond with originality and spontaneity to whatever life has to offer. Dr. Saunders advises women to look below the surface and behind the words, beyond semantics to messages from the heart. Therein lies the path to being a well-rounded human being and woman. Armed with this deep understanding, a woman can sidestep many of the outside forces that would otherwise undermine her personal power. Women and Stress shows every woman how to place mind and body in harmony, guiding her to a fulfilling life. - and - Are you constantly fatigued? Does your life frequently seem unmanageable? Do you often feel that you get too little joy out of life? If your answer is yes to all or any of these questions, you are probably suffering from stress. Today, more than ever before, women are under pressure to perform both at work and at home. While trying to be everything to everyone, we are putting our health at risk. Stress, over a prolonged period of time, can result in the breakdown of the body's immune system. This book speaks to all women--no matter what their circumstances--identifying key causes of stress and providing appropriate strategies for coping with the stain of day-to-day living. Begin the journey to joy and serenity in spite of life in the 1990s! Charmaine Saunders holds a PhD in Social Psychology and is a practicing counselor and therapist in Western Australia.
