25% discount when purchasing direct

The "Peace of Mind at Work Guidebook" offers evidence and a step-by-step process to help leaders and staff remain mentally, emotionally, and spiritually resilient in the midst of interpersonal challenges and demanding managerial responsibilities. 


Positive relationships benefit all concerned: coworkers, customers, clients, and managers. However, professional and interpersonal challenges are bound to arise in any workplace. Worry, anger and negative rumination over a perceived offense can adversely affect the mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical health of staff and management alike. 


Having experienced the adverse effects of such tension at work, the author Jeanne Belmonte, developed a two-step method of stress reduction along with a Personal Action Plan that she used successfully to improve her performance and a sense of well-being. Through case studies inspired by real-life situations, this guidebook shows you how to create strategies to reduce and/or eliminate this stress reaction, no matter what role you play in your organization. They can also help you build managerial skills. You do not have to wait for the workday to end, the weekend to arrive, or a new job to materialize to regain peace of mind at work.

Book Reviews: What Others Say

"Tension and stress at work is not new. Certainly, I encounter the negative impacts of what author, Jeanne Belmonte, terms "distracting stress", in my work with senior leaders across a broad variety of industries and roles. As Belmonte says, distracting stress at work has a tangible impact on performance. And it's not just the "stressed-out" individual that suffers: the entire team and business loses. We've all done the math: tension at work is expensive. 


Peace of Mind at Work Guidebook is a step-by-step approach to reduce your own stress and perhaps, to help your staff to navigate their distracting stress productively. Not every situation is fully within one's own control to resolve. I particularly appreciate that Belmonte offers strategies that work whether you control 0%, 50%, or 100%. It's a guidebook worth having on your shelf to reference again, and again, and again." Tara Rethore, CEO, Strategy For Real™, Global Strategic Advisor and Executive Coach to the C-Suite

"Jeanne Belmonte's book is an excellent guide to an important topic. It says reducing stress at work, but can be used in everyday life too. I like the examples, and following a similar group of characters on their journey throughout the book. Might be good for managers to share books with their team, as well. I am an insurance manager and have used this book to help my staff achieve work-life balance. I look forward to seeing more from this author." Joe Helensky, CPCU, Seattle, WA


"Peace of Mind at Work Guidebook: Tools to Bounce Back in the Midst of Workplace Difficulties and Discord, by author and professional management consultant Jeanne Belmonte, is the perfect antidote to the anxiety and stress flooding workplaces in today's society. The science is sound, the practical exercises are inspired by real-life situations that we can all relate to, and the example stress-reducing strategies stimulate creation of your own solutions. I wish I had this book when I was struggling with a challenging work situation, since I could have created a Personal Action Plan that would have helped me to find true peace of mind at work!" " Laraine B. author, retired communications manager
