About this listen
Modern times are stressful - and it's killing us. Unfortunately, we can't avoid the things that stress us out, but we can change how we respond to them. In this breakthrough book, a clinical psychologist and neuroscience expert offers an original approach to help listeners harness the power of positive emotions and overcome stress for good.
Stress is, unfortunately, a natural part of life - especially in our busy and hectic modern times. But you don't have to let it get in the way of your health and happiness. Studies show that the key to coping with stress is simpler than you think - it's all about how you respond to the situations and things that stress you out or threaten to overwhelm you.
The Stress-Proof Brain offers powerful, comprehensive tools based in mindfulness, neuroscience, and positive psychology to help you put a stop to unhealthy responses to stress - such as avoidance, tunnel vision, negative thinking, self-criticism, fixed mindset, and fear. Instead, you'll discover unique exercises that provide a recipe for resilience, empowering you to master your emotional responses, overcome negative thinking, and create a more tolerant, stress-proof brain.
This book will help you develop an original and effective program for mastering your emotional brain's response to stress by harnessing the power of neuroplasticity. By creating a more stress tolerant, resilient brain, you'll learn to shrug off the small stuff, deal with the big stuff, and live a happier, healthier life.

Pretty good overall.
Clear and covered important concepts. Decent content. Where it lost me is when she suggested snapping a rubber band on your wrist to deal with unwanted behaviours - terrible, outdated advice. Also fairly monotonous narration.

Actually really good. Perfect even.
This book is surprisingly excellent. A great overview of stress from a metabolic perspective, what stress and stressors look like and simple strategies (some old and some new) to help interrupt the negative feedback of stress. No too long, just perfect.

Too science focused
The Stress-Proof Brain was an interesting book that provided a great deal of detail when outlining the science behind stress in the brain and its origins. However, I felt that at times this background was excessive and the book didn't provide enough practical steps beyond mindful meditation to cope with the stress the book so eloquently outlines. This could be seen through the first two parts of the book where it spends a fair amount of time teaching the audience how to characterise the stress they're facing but not providing enough practical steps to deal with it.
