Nerves And Common Sense

Nerves and Common Sense is a book written by Annie Payson Call, first published in 1909. The book is a guide to understanding and managing nervous tension, stress, and anxiety. Call argues that many people suffer from nervous disorders due to a lack of understanding of the body and mind, and provides practical advice on how to alleviate these conditions. The book is divided into two parts. The first part deals with the causes and symptoms of nervous tension, while the second part offers practical advice on how to manage and overcome these conditions. Call emphasizes the importance of relaxation, proper breathing, and positive thinking in reducing nervous tension. The book is written in a clear and concise style, with practical examples and exercises provided throughout. Call's approach is holistic, emphasizing the interconnection between the body and mind. She also draws on her own experiences as a nurse and therapist, providing a wealth of practical advice for readers. Overall, Nerves and Common Sense is a timeless classic that offers valuable insights and advice for anyone struggling with nervous tension or anxiety. It is a must-read for anyone interested in holistic health and wellbeing.Then, again, my readers may say: ""But a woman's nervous system is more sensitive than a man's; she needs help and consolation. She needs to have some one on whom she can lean."" Now the answer to that will probably be surprising, but an intelligent understanding and comprehension of it would make a very radical difference in the lives of many men and women who have agreed to live together for life--for better and for worse.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
