About the author

Before she became a Clinical Psychologist Vee worked in the art field for 15 years, but having children and moving to the far North of Scotland changed everything for her. Starting off in counselling and setting up new services for young people through Community Education while doing a psychology degree with the Open University led to even more changes. Then, by chance, getting offered a job in the local Child Psychology Service, led to her being lucky enough to get offered a place on the Edinburgh University Clinical Psychology Course.

Vee has worked with Children, Young People and Families, in Cancer Care and in Adult Mental Health, her forte being setting up new and vibrant services for patients. She finished her NHS career by working at a strategic level making sure Mindfulness was available for all patients in Scotland for whom it was a valid therapeutic way forward for them.

Vee’s areas of interest, ever since her counselling days, have been stress management and bereavement, loss and adjustment, as well as having an interest in keeping people mentally healthy. She currently does individual stress management sessions and teaches Mindfulness and Qjqong internationally.

Approach revolved around 'what causes stress?' and hence solution is obviously doing the opposite/antidote to that causing stress.Reading this book you realise it in so many ways and also solving your stress problems in so many ways.And yes,the suggestions/tips work good.
