Most people deal with symptoms...this book, based on cybernetic control theory, deals with causes. Stress is an inescapable fact of modern life. Probably most of us would say we have more stress than is healthy for us, yet in most situations we see it as an inevitable by-product of our personal situation, emotions, job, society, or background. We think we are victims of inevitable stress. In simple, accessible language, Freedom from Stress explains new scientific thinking that utterly transforms stress. Stress results from our own values & actions; each of us is a complex control system of goals, priorities, & standards. Through this control system we seek various responses from the world: food, a job, prestige, love. When different elements of the control system come into conflict with each other, they produce both wanted & unwanted responses. The result is stress. Though we see stress as caused by these negative events, people, feelings, & situations, they & the stress they induce are only responses to our own actions. And we have dominion over them. Freedom from Stress reads like a novel & delivers on the promise in its title. Here, Ford teaches us to use the exciting concepts of Control Theory to eliminate the causes of stress in our lives -- to achieve true Freedom from Stress.

Do you frequently check yourself for lumps, bumps, tingling, or pain? Do you find yourself endlessly looking up symptoms on the internet?

Offering a variety of nondogmatic, empowering tools for enhancing personal growth, Freedom from Anxiety will help anxiety sufferers find ways, many of them free or very low cost, to achieve immediate relief as well as long term care and treatment.
