Summary:

Stress is a modern-day epidemic, and with the tumult of busy schedules and major life changes that young adults experience, they're particularly vulnerable to its negative effects. In The Mindful Twenty-Something, the founder of the extremely popular Koru Mindfulness program developed at Duke University presents a unique, evidence-based approach to help twenty-somethings reduce stress and make important life decisions with respect to school, relationships, sex, career, and more-with clarity and confidence.
