Book Reviews of The Stress-Free Habit: Powerful Techniques for Health and Longevity from the Andes, Yucatan, and the Far East
Book Review: Learn stress management from indigenous cultures
Summary: 4 Stars
Long before he wrote his bestseller "Confessions of an Economic Hitman," John Perkins drew upon his experiences in other cultures to write this book on stress management. Illustrating his points with anecdotes from indigenous cultures in the Andes, Yucatan, Java, and Sulawasi, Perkins outlines five elements of what he calls the "stress-free habit": be who you want to be; recognize that it is the lack of a solution that is the problem, rather than the problem itself; concentrate; have faith; and meditate. It is a short book and an easy read, with both interesting windows on other parts of the world and practical advice.
