The Big Book of Stress Relief Games: Quick, Fun Activities for Feeling Better Paperback – April 17, 2000

I had to adapt them slightly to fit the comfort level of the students but we had fun and had a good laugh at it and was able to get back to work to be more productive.

very helpful in relieving daily stress

Great resource!

I use this in designing stress relief training programs. I like the approach it explains in having fun at work.

This is a great book for anyone who is in the counseling profession. Make your group/family counseling sessions a little more fun and get the dialogue flowing. - Good job Robert!

Perhaps I was looking for the wrong thing. I expected a book on how to relieve stress with quick little games to do at the beginning of a business meeting. Instead, the 'games' in this book sound more like therapy sessions. Most are meditation and message exercises.One example: The Glittering Roof, where you have everyone close their eyes and you, the facilitator, read a 2.5 page verbal 'fantasy' in a calm and soothing voice to the group. At the end, everyone discusses how they felt. There are many exercises like this in the book.Another example (my favorite): The Beastly Boss. Again you start the group off with breathing and imagery exercises. Then you pair everyone off. One person assumes the role of Beastly Boss. The other the role of Exemplary Employee. The Beastly Boss then 'acts insensitively' while the Exemplary Employee employs more breathing and imagery techniques to remain cool. Then they switch. Puh-leez! Can anyone think of a quicker way to be sent to a remote location than to try this on your co-workers?This is not for corporate profesionals...

Book arrived with movie we ordered and the top right hand corner was folded over. Disappointed with the look of the book since this is a Christmas present.

Personally, I think this book is easy to read and understand. The games presented in the book are unique and simple to apply. Many companys and businesses experience stress daily. Therefore, this book provides numerous ways to help relieve stress in the workplace. I strongly recommend this book.
