About your course materials

PERSONAL STRESS MANAGEMENT: FROM SURVIVING TO THRIVING equips college students with the insights and skills to handle common campus stressors including academics, time management, and relationship issues. Packed with actionable strategies, this guide demonstrates how students can change their perspective and respond to demands with confidence, empowering them to be stronger, more committed, and more resilient in the classroom and in life. To accomplish this, PERSONAL STRESS MANAGEMENT: FROM SURVIVING TO THRIVING delivers self-assessments that help students understand how and why they react to stressors, along with a customizable toolkit of strategies for diffusing them. Incorporating the latest in neuroscience, exercise physiology, nutrition, and medicine, PERSONAL STRESS MANAGEMENT: FROM SURVIVING TO THRIVING also discusses healthy habits, such as regular exercise and good nutrition, to defend against the pressures of college life and prevent burnout.

Your instructor will tell you how to access your course. You may join through your school’s LMS, a course link or a course key. If you’re unsure which method to use, check with your instructor.

How do I redeem an access code, or what if my code isn't working?

Sign in to your Cengage account and select Enter Access Code or Course Key, then enter your access code and select Register. If your code is damaged, missing or still doesn't work, contact Cengage Support.

Why can't I access my course?

Pressure Gauge: Each chapter starts with a check-up to help readers assess their own lives and the stress they’re experiencing. A variety of topics ask students about the health of their relationships, the level of stress they feel in the workplace, how mindful they tend to be, and more.

Quick Topics: A number of short topics in the readings present intriguing topics for students to consider and research further, or simply relate to their personal circumstances.

Tension Relievers. These stress relief tips appear throughout the text to offer students practical and actionable steps they can take today to reduce their stress levels.

Stress Management Toolkit. Unique and interactive, this handy feature equips students with a range of coping strategies, which they customize to specific situations and stressors, for effective relief whenever and wherever it’s needed.
