Drawing from groundbreaking research, psychologist and award-winning teacher Kelly McGonigal, PhD, offers a surprising new view of stress--one that reveals the upside of stress, and shows us exactly how to capitalize on its benefits.

You hear it all the time: stress causes heart disease; stress causes insomnia; stress is bad for you But what if changing how you think about stress could make you happier, healthier, and better able to reach your goals? Combining exciting new research on resilience and mindset, Kelly McGonigal, PhD, proves that undergoing stress is not bad for you; it is undergoing stress while believing that stress is bad for you that makes it harmful. In fact, stress has many benefits, from giving us greater focus and energy, to strengthening our personal relationships.

McGonigal shows readers how to cultivate a mindset that embraces stress, and activate the brain's natural ability to learn from challenging experiences. Both practical and life-changing, The Upside of Stress is not a guide to getting rid of stress, but a toolkit for getting better at it--by understanding, accepting, and leveraging it to your advantage.

Quiet Luxury Look Without the Designer Price
I bought this bag because I genuinely loved the color, woven design, and overall look of it, not because I needed validation from carrying a designer label. Honestly though, it can easily pass the Bottega Veneta vibe test at first glance. The design looks very elegant and expensive without trying too hard. What surprised me most was how lightweight it is while still fitting all my essentials. I was able to comfortably fit my phone, car keys with remote, cards, and small makeup touch up items inside without making the bag bulky. The gold tone is beautiful in person and pairs so well with both dressy and minimal outfits. It’s one of those bags that instantly elevates the entire look.
