Product Description
Winner of 2007 Telly Award for Wellness Programming Excellence! Stress & Relaxation Explained is a comprehensive, humanistic approach to relaxation therapy and stress management techniques. Stress and anxiety are all around us - from the pressures of the competitive workplace, to our everyday obligations of home, family and finances. Understanding the nature of stress and how it affects our mind, body and overall health is key to effectively managing and responding to it. Once you understand where stress comes from, its physiological effects, and how it affects our behavior, you will be able to more effectively utilize relaxation techniques like yoga, meditation and guided imagery - and their rejuvenating effects will be far more long-lasting. This DVD explores all aspects of stress reduction, including: types of stress and causes; health risks; types of relaxation techniques and how the choose the best for you; real life case study and demonstrations of relaxation techniques; and a sample immersive, nature-based, guided relaxation experience in 5.1 surround sound. |

Disappointing by A. Koç (Turkey)  2 Stars
July 13, 2008
When I bought the DVD I was expecting more... All that I can find on the DVD is also possible to be found written in any book about stress. It doesn't make any sense if you sit and read this things to me. I wanted more... At least it had to be cheaper... Lots of web pages give these informations about stress for free...

Great education with immediately practical tips! by S. A. Lyon  5 Stars
February 17, 2008
I've seen Dr. Domar on the morning shows in the past and always felt a connection with what she's had to say. So while watching this DVD, I had more than a few "lightbulb" moments. Not only did I not realize that some of my normal daily routine was actually contributing to a stressful lifestyle, but as she differentiated between good stress and bad stress, I found her gentle words gave me permission to let go of the pressure and blame I put on myself for always feeling so run down. I recommend this very user friendly DVD to anyone who wants to gain some insight into their crazy lives and work to balance life/work/family. The beautiful music and imagery add to the peaceful (and professional) presentation. This is a great start for me to gain control of my life and will be a constant companion as I build my arsenal of relaxation tools. Thanks so much!!!

An Important DVD by Peter M. Rafalow 5 Stars
March 02, 2007
This DVD is a MUST in this day and age for anyone to get more out of their lives with a better understanding of stress and relaxation. It is incredibly informative in so many areas, particularly those that I never gave much thought to. Not only is the information fascinating, but it is presented in a very professional and graphically artistic way. I strongly recommend this DVD for everyone. Not only is it important to watch, but it serves as a constant resource for me to review again and again.
