Synopsis"Every teenager will get a lot out of this book (and their parents, too)." Rick Hanson, Ph.D., psychologist and New York Times best-selling author of Hardwiring Happiness Adam Avin is a strong believer that mindfulness is the key to coping with stress, pressure and the strong emotions that the teenage years often bring. And he would know - he's not only a teen himself, but he's a mindfulness expert and the founder of Wuf Shanti, an organization that teaches kids of all ages to be more mindful. In Stress Less , Adam walks you through the reasons why coping with emotions and stress in a healthy way is good for your body and mind. He will teach you what mindfulness is and how to develop a mindful mindset so that you can find balance and focus on the present, rather than worrying about the past or the future. Stress Less features a foreword by Udonis Haslem, three-time NBA Champion with the Miami HEAT, founder of The Udonis Haslem Foundation and advocate for mental health in underserved communities, a passion that stems from his own experiences. Adam also shares his favorite tried-and-tested ways to overcome difficult feelings. You will learn about affirmations, meditation, breathwork and how to use journaling, all of which can help you feel less overwhelmed, anxious and depressed. Using these tools will help you to become calmer, happier and more content, and establish a solid mental health practice and toolkit to rely on for years to come.
