About the Author
Linda Wasmer Andrews, MS, has been coping with the deadline
pressures of freelance journalism for more than two decades, so she
knows a thing or two about stress. She specializes in writing about
health, psychology, and the mind/body connection. Linda is the
author of six previous books, including a Scientific American book
titled Of Mind and Body and a children's book titled Meditation. She
has also contributed articles to national magazines, major websites,
and numerous reference works. Linda became so fascinated by the
mind/body health topics she covered as a journalist that she
recently returned to school to earn a master's degree in health
psychology. She works from her home in Albuquerque, New Mexico,
where she likes to breathe deeply, think optimistically, stretch
regularly, and spend time doing nothing at all with her husband and
two dogs. |
