(PRWEB) November 17, 2004 -- MySelfHelp.com has announced the availability of

Stress Management provides information, tools, and exercises to help

stop negative thoughts and feelings, nurture themselves during times of stress,
cope with difficult emotions, and change beliefs and attitudes that can
contribute to stress.
“Members throughout the world are finding that our
interactive exercises and tools can help them relieve stress and anxiety,
develop new coping skills, and learn to relax,” said Richard Bedrosian, Ph.D.,
president and founder of MySelfHelp.com. “The stress management program teaches
people techniques to soothe themselves and maintain a positive outlook. People
can use these skills to help them cope more effectively with all kinds of
stressful situations. The exercises in the program are based upon the techniques
of cognitive-behavior therapy (CBT), a form of treatment that has proven to be
effective with many different psychological problems.
