About the Book

"With this simple, straightforward solution, you can switch your brain's autopilot from habitual stress and anxiety to a mindset that is calm and wired for success.

From your career to your family to your golf score, everything depends on higher brain networks functioning at optimum. That's why alleviating stress is the key to success--and why changing your brain is the first step to sustaining more joy, peace, and fulfillment at every level of life. In The End of Stress, Don Joseph Goewey offers an easy, four-step method that will increase your brainpower and end anxiety. Drawing on the latest research in neuroscience and neuroplasticity, Goewey's cutting-edge approach has been tested through webinars and seminars in high-stress environments and proven effective from chief executives, managers, and engineers to blue-collar construction workers. You have the power to reach your highest potential--but it all starts with the brain. The End of Stress gives you the tools you need to transcend stress and make every day your best day"--

Book Synopsis

Rid yourself of stress and live a richly beautiful life filled with the joy you deserve! Using a simple method, The End of Stress shows you how to change your brain's default reaction from stress, anxiety, and depression to calm, creativity, and happiness.

Have you been struggling with your levels of stress, unable to escape it completely? It's not your fault. We were brought up in a fear-based, shame-based culture that wired our brains' default systems to stress and fear--triggering all sorts of stress reactions that sabotage happiness, compromise health, and block our potential to flourish. If ignored too long, long-term stress can become deadly, resulting in a build-up of toxic stress hormones in your body, shrinking your brain mass and lowering optimum brain function, depressing your emotional set point, and shortening your lifespan.

There's now proof that the deadly long-term effects of stress are reversable and The End of Stress provides four steps to better achieve success and happiness. This specific shift literally rewires the brain to deliver the full measure of intelligence, creativity, and emotional balance that enables you to thrive instead of struggle.

The End of Stress: Four Steps to Rewire Your Brain guides you through an evidence-based process that achieves this powerful shift. This book is designed as a workshop-in-a-book, supported by a website of tools, audio files, and materials that can help create a new and healthier you!
