Gr 8 Up—The authors have designed a self-help book for students interested in ways to combat the everyday stresses of school, family, and friends. The authors suggest that reading the book cover to cover is not necessary; teens can just pick whatever soothing activity appeals to them most. The projects include meditating, creating a nature journal, doing yoga, drinking tea, getting some sun, starting a gratitude journal, smiling, volunteering, and writing thank you notes. Each idea is presented with an explanation of why that activity reduces stress. An inspiring quotation is provided at the end of each short chapter. The book is filled with photographs and drawings of teenage girls and completed projects. Various fonts, colors, and geometric designs are used throughout, making the book visually attractive.
VERDICT Suited for a variety of different personality types, this guide to relaxing is great for independent and group use.
