Most fun things we do are actually a form of stress - riding a roller coaster, skiing, sudoku - a challenge.

You can reprogram your brain to turn your stress into a positive experience.

Consider this: Most of the stress you feel is self-generated.

If your brain can generate it, your brain can resolve it.

Who's in charge? You or your brain?

A handy volume of uncommon good sense.
