my IBS is mainly stress based, and even though i've had it since i was 4 or 5 i've only been diagnosed for a year or so...but only in this country (stupid GPs) for about a week. i find it really difficult to relax, and i'm wondering if anyone knows of good books or things on relaxation and or meditation. i really need to do something cos in the past week i have only sat down and relaxed for an hour and that was this lunch time in a cafe waiting for my other half to turn up...
anything would be helpful, thanks..
