Plus, even though everyone is experiencing more stress than ever, they are also tired of traditional “stress management” and people giving them simplistic answers to life’s complex problems. In this interview, psychologist Dr. Bill Crawford addresses this problem by first explaining why this level of stress and frustration is so prevalent, and why so much of the advice about how to deal with these problems will never work! Then, using a conversational style that is free of psychobabble, he uses the latest research on the brain to outline a concrete, comprehensive system for dealing with stress and accessing the clarity, confidence, and creativity necessary for success in today’s world.
