Mind-body bridging is a new body-mind language that allows people to reconnect with their ability to function effectively. Since I have directly witnessed the power and efficacy of Stans work, I am very ready to state that the approach of mapping and bridging can be an adjunct to spiritual practice or it can stand on its own.
Charlotte Joko Beck, bestselling author of Everyday Zen
Dr. Blocks bridging methods have given me new ways to help pitchers deal with adversity and compete in the major leagues.

This mind-body medicine-based workbook guides readers back to their inner reservoir of self-empowerment by showing them how to override a learned stress response and faulty brain network and regain access to their natural executive functioning. The mind-body mapping exercises outlined within teach readers how to reduce stress and develop a set of personalized, powerful, crisis-management tools. Moreover, since these exercises are quick and easy to do, theyll become a welcome staple of your lifelong health regimen. But dont be fooled by their simplicity. Ive witnessed their powerful impact personally and in my work with cancer patients and their caregivers.

Our teaching about stress is primarily influenced by the effective way individuals suffering from stress have shared with us how they utilized Mind-Body Bridging to liberate themselves from the restrictions of the I-System. Although we have not specifically referenced other workers in the stress reduction field, we appreciate their pioneering work. The clinicians from around the world using, developing and refining Mind-Body Bridging have our gratitude and thanks. Deserving of specific mention are the members of the International Mind-Body Bridging Certification Committee: Don Glover, Rich Landward, Theresa McCormick, Andrea Phillips, Isaac Phillips, and Kevin Webb. The research efforts of Yoshi Nakamura, David Lipschitz, and Derrik Tollefson, to establish a firm evidence basis for Mind-Body Bridging is much appreciated. Carol Ann Kent, the MBB coordinator has ably assisted in the preparation of this workbook. The direction from the editors of New Harbinger Publishing was most helpful
Stress impairs our sleep, damages our health, and prevents us from taking care of ourselves and our responsibilities.

Researchers have found that healthy adults aged eighteen to forty-eight who are subject to significant stressors have decreased brain volume (Ansell et al. 2012).
Physical, social, or psychological stressors are demands that overload us. Stress is the minds and bodys signal that a stressor has drained our physical and emotional resources. Stress may manifest itself as anxiety, fears, worry, depression, irritability, anger, lethargy, muscular tension, assorted aches and pains, overworking, hypertension, overeating, indigestion, diarrhea, constipation, insomnia, poor decision making, and alcohol or drug abuse. Stress negatively affects the quality of your life and prevents you from facing situations with a ready and relaxed mind and body.
Self-power is your innate ability to deal effectively with the stressors in your life without stress overload. Converting stress into self-power isnt medieval alchemy; its twenty-first-century neuroscience. Our self-power is regulated by a brain network researchers refer to as the
