Dr. Arthur Ciaramicoli - The Stress Solution

Aired Wednesday, 6 July 2016, 8:00 PM ETGot stress? A recent survey says that Americans have high stress levels and 53% said they received little or no stress management support from their health care providers. Two thirds of office visits to primary care physicians can be tied to stress. Stress can lead to inflammation which contributes to long term health problems like cancer and heart disease. My guest this week, Clinical Psychologist Dr. Arthur Ciaramicoli, says….”We work too much, sleep too little, love with half a heart, and wonder why we are unhappy and unhealthy.” In his new book, The Stress Solution, he provides readers with simple, realistic, powerful techniques for using empathy and cognitive behavioral therapy to perceive situations accurately, correct distorted thinking, and trigger our own neurochemistry to produce calm, focused energy.Dr. Ciaramicoli is a licensed clinical psychologist and the chief medical officer of soundmindz.org, a popular mental health platform. He has been on the faculty of Harvard Medical School and chief psychologist of Metrowest Medical Center. He is the author of several books, including The Power of Empathy and Performance Addiction.
