<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">We’ve almost made it to the end of another historic quarter. Hope you are doing well. It was great to connect at the conference. I missed our gatherings.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">I know you are inundated, but can you tell me what book you use for your Stress Management class and if you think it is a good one?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">Looking for one that’s not too dense, not expensive, and easy to read with chapters on topics such as nutrition, exercise, mindfulness, social support, etc. Also really need
something that was published within the last 5 or less years – preferably less. <o:p>
</o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">At BC, we’ve long used “10 Simple Solutions to Stress” and the students and the counselors who teach the course really like it. It’s a small book, but since it was printed
in 2007, the sources are getting quite dated – though the info is still great.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">There is a newer version of this, but it is essentially a micro-book, not enough content for a class. And I think the class would lose some credibility if we used a microbook!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">If you have a more current book that you recommend that is easy to read, not too dense and not too expensive, we’d love to know what you are using.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">We have been searching for a new book – looking online, in bookstores, in libraries, and haven’t found anything yet.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">If you don’t mind shooting me an email, I would so appreciate some ideas. Maybe there is a newer version of the one you use, if yours was also published a number of years back.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
