Our friends in emergency services and healthcare have described intense suffering and stress related to COVID-19. We wrote this book to help. The techniques are easy to learn and use in any situation.
The All Clear Foundation supports first responders by bringing together hundreds of organizations that provide crisis assistance, peer support, mental & physical wellness, and more. We help police officers, firefighters, EMTs, paramedics, and other first responders find help they need and connect them with the support they deserve.

“Managing their own stress is a continual task for the healing professions—more challenging perhaps in the era of COVID-19, but, frankly, always with us. This delightful book draws on a wide library of science, teachings, and experience and distills it all into a readable and useful collection of practical, attractive techniques. Each one seems not only promising, but frankly, fun. This book brings optimism and oxygen at a time when we badly need both.”
