A Guide to Winning Mind Games: Keep Your Hair and Your Health
()
About this ebook
There are many guides available that focus on dealing with stress, but virtually all the advice concentrates on responding to the results and symptoms of stress, rather than its causes. No wonder everyone continues to suffer from the devastating consequences of being stressed out.
Author Manuel Antonio Lopez, a professional mechanical engineer, seeks to fill this void in knowledge by sharing stress alleviators that he has discovered over a lifetime. In this practical guidebook to understanding the causes of stress-related hair loss and illness, you can discover how to reverse harmful effects.
Lopez looks back on his own battles with stress and how he went form being hyperactive and stressed out to relaxed and carefree. As a result of dealing with his stress, he went from being balding and overweight to being trim and sporting a head of thick, lustrous hair.
Get a better nights sleep, prevent depression, keep your hair, and, most importantly, boost your chances of living a long and healthy life with A Guide to Winning Mind Games.

This book provides engineering solutions to problems based on my own experiences and human behavioral data that I collected over the past thirty-eight years. Even though most of this data is based on observations of changes in the behaviors of a man, most of these elements would also apply to a woman. The basic principle, hidden in the context throughout this book, is based on creating an analogy between engineering system standards and the human machine
in order to analyze and solve human problems.
This book discusses and demonstrates how to transform one’s state of mind from adapted hyperactive—being stressed out
—to relaxed. This book is based on my personal journey of experiencing
