STRESS AND YOUR HEART tells how to guard your heart, body, and mind against the
dangerous effects of Emotional Stress. Gain increased health, vigor; and peace of mind.
Dr. Hans Selye's famous concept of the part that
everyday stress plays in destroying the human ma
chine created one of the greatest upheavals of medical
thinking in this century.
British Medical Journal said:
"No theory in living memory has stimulated
research to such an extent."
Mo3t of us, when we think of stress, think only of
the muscular strain and tiredness caused by exercise.
The fact is that you may also suffer from a far more
subtle and dangerous form of stress that is caused by
your own life-conditioning, by the people around
you, and by the way you take care of your affairs!
This form of stress actually works through your emo
tions. As Dr. Selye points out in STRESS AND YOUR
HEART: A germ or a virus comes into your body
from outside; but stress is the hidden enemy that
attacks from within. Heart, kidneys, liver, pancreas,
muscles, mind . . . stress is the destructive agent that
affects them all.
For the first time in complete book form, you can
read Dr. Selye's tested, simple method for restoring
your health and strength and building a great, natural
bulwark against disease of any kind.
Medical journals and the public press report a new,
growing concern with tensions caused by the pace,
complexity and pressures of todays' living. Doctors
know how important it is for you to keep calm, how
much better you can feel, and how much happier you
can be.
It's not enough to know that you should relax.
That may be easier said than done. You may need the
expert help that's available in Dr. Selye's method as
he describes it in easily understood detail in STRESS
AND YOUR HEART.
The destructive effects of stress are too well
known, too frequent to be ignored. This book beyond
price can tench you to live better, live longer.
STRESS AND YOUR HEART, THE BOOK THAT CAN
HELP MULTIPLY THE BEST YEARS OF YOUR LIFE . . .
Dr. Selye not only tells how to recognize the situa
tions and symptoms that are the source of stress, he
suggests simple, tested, effective ways for you to
shield your emotions against its insidious effects. You
may already be aware of emotional reactions that do
you no good, that help nobody, that may do you
great and irreparable harm. Now you can do some
thing about it ... to help you live longer, live better!
