Over a ten-week period, Best of Stress Management will explain everything you need to determine which stress reduction techniques are right for you and how to create a mind-body health program. The course is based on science. It’s taught by one of the world’s leading authorities and other experts in the field. In your own living room. And in plain language that makes sense.
This first-of-its-kind product includes video instruction, audio lessons, a workbook to practice exercises, a biofeedback device to see your stress levels change, ongoing Web-based instruction and much more.
Video Instruction
The foundation of the program is the “Mind-Body Health and Healing” video, which you’ll watch first. In this hour-long presentation, James S. Gordon, M.D. demonstrates that mind-body exercises – from meditation to guided imagery, from deep breathing to biofeedback – should be central to every wellness and treatment program. He’ll teach you the science of mind-body medicine and show you effective and fun exercises that you can do on your own.
Audio Lessons and Exercises
Best of Stress Management also includes audio instruction on 10 CDs, one for each week of the course. Led by Dr. Gordon and his colleague Susan Lord, M.D., these lessons cover key stress management topics. Each CD includes an easy-to-understand lesson and exercises that you’ll be able to use over and over again. Also included are bonus contributions from some of the Center for Mind-Body Medicine’s distinguished friends and advisors.
Track Your Progress in Real Time
The course includes a biofeedback monitor, which will allow you to watch your stress levels change as you practice the exercises. You’ll also benefit from Web-based, ongoing instruction and interaction with experts.
