And Put Down the RestDay 3: Be the LionDay 4: Train for ResilienceDay 5: Let Nature Do the WorkDay 6: Don't Just Relax . . . RestoreDay 7: Start Full, End Full Dr. Epel shows us how we can "stress better"--by training our minds and bodies to shift towards a flexible, beneficial stress response that can actually enhance health.
