Written by Robyne Hanley-Dafoe

Narrated by Robyne Hanley-Dafoe and Paul Stefano

It’s time to make stress your ally, not your enemy.

Stress is inherent to the human condition. When not properly understood, stress can wreak havoc on our mental and physical health, our relationships, and our lives. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

In Stress Wisely, award-winning psychology scholar and resiliency expert Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe explains how we can be strategic in stressful times by challenging everything we’ve been told about stress—and wielding its power in our favour.

With her signature honesty, humor, relatability, and intimacy, Dr. Robyne draws on her vast research and real-world experiences in wellness, stress, and resiliency to help you navigate the chaos in the wisest way possible.

Through smart strategies and awareness-raising exercises grounded in science and the eight touchstones of wellness—physical, emotional, intellectual, social environmental, occupational, financial, and spiritual—Dr. Robyne teaches you how to make your nervous system your ally in every stage of your life (yes, even in the most challenging circumstances).

Life is joyful, complicated, messy, and downright hard at times, AND you are capable to navigate it all. In Stress Wisely, get ready to learn, unlearn, and integrate smart stressing principles for a healthier, more meaningful, and purpose-filled life that is waiting for you. Better days are ahead.
