Let Dr. Steven Haymon Show You How to Live a Stress-Free Life Through His Book, Stress: Climbing out of its Pits with God

Looking at stress from a biblical perspective, Dr. Haymon lets us know that stress can be good or bad; its nature can be intense and encompassing, and we have to find the right outlet for relief to whatever is causing the stress in the first place. The sad thing about handling stress is that many go about it the wrong way and thus exhibit various negative behaviors such as: (1) addictions: gambling, alcohol, drugs, sex, and pornography; (2) physical illnesses: cancer, heart attacks, strokes, Alzheimer's, pneumonia, immune deficiency, viral infections, and susceptibility to certain forms of bacteria and germs; and (3) mood disorders: major depression, bipolar/mania disorder, postpartum depression, and seasonal affective disorder.

Haymon gives us an understanding of stress, how it affects our relationship with God and with others, and how we can handle it in a positive way to live the healthy life God wants us to live. 
Dr. Haymon writes: "When we are stressed or overwhelmed we need to experience God's peace. It is what we have searched for since the beginning of time. Unfortunately, we don't have the ability to fabricate or conjure it. It is a gift that only He can give."

Through the pages of Stress: Climbing out of its Pits with God, Dr. Haymon provides us with positive coping mechanisms to help us feel better about ourselves, about others, about God, and about situations we encounter each day to live a productive and successful life.
