Research Notes

This teleseminar on stress had a LOT of research that went along with it. So much that I couldn’t fit it all on the single notes page. As all of the research is accessible via the internet, it makes sense to share them directly.

They’re listed in the rough order that Shawna shared the information during the call:

American Institute of Stress (lots of great research, tips, and education here!)

Some of the more interesting sections we found:

• Developing the habits that you want to enhance your life
• Keeping a habit tracking system that is easy and effective
• Learning the secrets of successful achievers and how to incorporate them
