Cooling Down Teen Stress (3rd Ed)

Teen stress strategies every teen needs to know

by Delight Johnston Chandler

This Paperback version of Cooling Down Teen Stress is also available as an eBook and Audiobook.


An exciting teen story, by a teen for teens, that relates to the stresses of everyday teen life.

Live a year with Derisa - energetic, smart, caring and otherwise typical high school student - as she navigates challenges in and out of school. Her story grapples with real life-and-death teen issues, like dating, parents, fear, jobs, grades, suicide and grief.

Following each chapter is an interactive teen stress strategy, providing readers with high-impact awareness tools to assess their stress levels and manage stress. 

There are practical solutions for external stressors, like not enough time, money or freinds--and for deep-seated, internal stressors, like low self-worth, guilt and negative emotions. 

This book is priority reading for every teenager.

This third edition now includes information about cyberbullying and technology overuse.

Reviews and Endorsements

“We use Cooling Down Teen Stress with our students. It is required reading for my peer counselling students so they can learn skills for managing their own stress, as well as for helping fellow students who are feeling overwhelmed. I highly recommend this book for its practical, easy-to-read approach to teen stress management. The students enjoy the story approach and they easily identify with the girl in the story because she faces many of the same stressors that high school students deal with on a daily basis. This also seems to make the concepts easy for them to remember and apply. In student book reviews, they often recommend this book as one that all students should read.”

“Students become engrossed in their reading of this book. Even during classes, it is often difficult to get them to put it down. It takes a realistic view of the pressures that teens face in today’s society. With minimal guidance, it allows teens to develop their own solutions to problems. Many teens are reluctant to become vulnerable in sharing their personal struggles. For this type of student, the book is fantastic. It allows them to maintain their dignity while addressing uncomfortable situations.
In our classrooms, students responded to this book with excitement.
The activities at the end of the chapters intrigued them and kept them glued to the story line. It is a great book for discussion within the class, and can open the way for dialoguing on other relevant issues not directly discussed in the book.
Through this book, students learned many coping mechanisms. They were excited to be able to relate to the issues that were presented and felt that the coping strategies were realistic and achievable. One student says, ‘It helped me understand not only myself better but others too. It taught me to communicate my feelings and other ways of dealing with how I feel.’”

“I highly recommend Cooling Down Teen Stress. It is a cross between a teen fiction story and self-help book and deals with the stresses in the life of the typical teen. It offers solid, no-nonsense guidance and advice on a range of issues including dealing with grief, drug use and abuse, peer issues, popularity, career choice and just surviving school. Each chapter in the story is followed by interactive activities designed to get teens thinking and working through their problems.”
—T Knight, National Director, Adventist Youth Ministries, Melbourne, Vic.

“When I saw Cooling Down Teen Stress, I knew instantly that I wanted to use it in my classroom. The students were captivated by the story line and enjoyed completing the worksheets. They became familiar with the strategies for coping with stress and commented on how practical they were. The format of the book kept their interest and provided variety. I plan to use this book again with my next year’s class.”
