About Du Stress au Zen
What this site is, who writes it, and the rules every guide here follows on health, numbers and recommendations.
Du Stress au Zen started in 2015 as a French blog about stress and calm: the biology of stress, its psychology, meditation and quiet daily habits. The site continues that subject in English, French and more languages, as a reference of plainly written guides to breathing, relaxation, sleep and how stress works.
How the guides are written
Every guide describes a practice and how people use it, with the steps written out so you can follow along. None of them promises to cure or treat anything, recommends supplements or medication, or quotes statistics that cannot be traced. Each page is checked against those rules before it is published.
Not medical advice
These guides are general information for everyday stress. They are not a substitute for a doctor or a mental health professional. If stress, anxiety, low mood or sleep problems are affecting your life, talk to one. In an emergency, or if you are thinking about harming yourself, contact your local emergency number right away.
