Coping with a Stressed Nervous System
by Dr Kenneth Hambly & Alice Muir
Autonomic overload is a silent and unrecognized epidemic. Our central nervous systems are only designed to take so much stimulus. Too much, and they become overloaded, resulting in malfunction and illness of various kinds. This is a precisely targeted book which focuses on the autonomic nervous system – the part of the nervous system we all take for granted as it guides us through the routine actions such as breathing and heart rate.
The authors concentrate on tried and tested techniques to help banish autonomic overload, heal body and mind and keep your nervous system in balance. Topics covered include; why and how the nervous system becomes stressed and overloaded, relaxation and breathing techniques, coping with panic attacks and how changing the way you think can help.
Dr Kenneth Hambly is author of How to Improve Your Confidence (Sheldon Press). Dr. Hambly has worked as a general practitioner in both Canada and Britain, and the relationship between physical symptoms and emotional problems is his speciality.
Alice Muir is a psychologist who has also written about stress. Both authors run the Stress Education Services, Ayrshire, which offers life skills coaching for lay people and health professionals.
