Most people don�t realize that their own thinking is a major cause of stress. They blame events (like a traffic jam or a lost file or an argument with their boss) not realizing that it�s that their thoughts about these events that are the true source of their distress. Cognitive Restructuring helps you control your thinking - so stressful events and circumstances don�t automatically lead to stress. This 5-part online course can be found at www.stressstop.com.
