The Stress Free You: How to Live Stress Free and Feel Great Everyday, Starting Today

Certainly an excellent topic to write about! The ideal book to read on a vacation, or on an similar relaxing environment, but rather than reading a relaxing book about how to de-stress, the book itself was a bit too stuffy, stressful. The message was a bit lost, but the way around it, is to read the rather short book in pieces. It's a good try, and helpful, but not terrible. 3 stars.

This is a very good book for someone buckling down to make practical changes to improve life in the face of stress. It's a quick read that does not condescend or judge, with lots of practical information and starting points. Great for someone who is doesn't want or need to be cajoled or convinced, but responds to the solid research of a respectful peer. A good starting point from which to embark on your own journey to better stress management.

I received this book through the early reviewers member giveaway.

I guess I was hoping for some revolutionary method to reduce stress but everything was tactics I've already heard of/tried. The part about herbs is interesting but that was really the only part I found informative. I think it's very basic and doesn't really scratch the surface of living stress free.

I found many typos, too.

I won this through a Library Thing giveaway.

This book came at the right time. I've been stressed out and not sleeping. This book gave me some great ways to identify stress and how to deal with it. Granted, you have to do the work but I'm starting to realize some of the signs. I try to remember one thing from the book per day. I highly recommend purchasing this book.

This was very annoying to read. I won it through the members giveaway program and the bottom of every page said this is a review copy, do not distribute. I read it on a nook and the formatting was awful. Different size fonts and random bold lettering for no reason.

The actual information was nothing new or interesting. Sleep well, eat well, do yoga. One chapter on aromatherapy. I didn't learn anything useful.
