Page vi IRENE TUBBS has been working in the field of education since 1976, initially as a physical education specialist working with children and adults. In 1978 she was a founder-contributor of a rehabilitation programme set up to assist patients recovering from any condition that affects the heart, a programme which she still offers. In 1984 she became a senior lecturer in adult education, and was subsequently a head of department and then a head of area, being an initiator of many educational courses for all age groups. As well as performing a management role, she also continued to organize and run courses for trainers and students in coronary rehabilitation, relaxation, stress management, diet/nutrition, benefits of exercise, fertility counselling, appraisal and management skills. She has previously written books on coronary rehabilitation and fertility, plus many pamphlets and self-help guidelines for combating stress. As well as a teaching degree, Irene has diplomas in management, counselling, stress management, multi-modal psychotherapy and stress counselling.

Page vii FOREWORD Relaxation has long been recognized as being of significant benefit to individuals. In this book Irene Tubbs has put together a variety of techniques aimed at a wide client group found in many types of helping situations. Practitioners of counselling, cognitive-behavioural psychotherapy and stress counselling have been using relaxation as a way of helping clients for many years. The use of relaxation amongst those undergoing infertility treatment has also proved beneficial. There is much in this book to recommend it both to the beginner and to the seasoned practitioner. In addition to the areas indicated above, it examines the benefits of human touch and the role relaxation plays in creating the most helpful type of environment. This useful publication will add to the body of practical knowledge on the subject.
