The FAST Technique for Stress Relief is an audiobook on 2 CDs offering a simple, straightforward method for relaxation and stress relief. Nationally known psychologist and award-winning educator Dr. Ronald Nathan walks the reader through basic techniques on the first CD in a calm, soothing voice, accompanied by sounds of the ocean surf with seagulls and an acoustic guitar. The second CD branches into more advanced techniques. The FAST Technique for Stress Relief guides the listener to incorporated brief, relaxing moments into the hectic bustle of daily life, when interludes of peace are most needed. Relaxation is also presented as a drug-free sleep aide, along with peaceful affirmations to develop healthier thought patterns. The overall experience is not simply a temporary instance of relaxation, but a methodology to incorporating relaxation in order to improve the overall quality of one's life. Highly recommended.
