5.0 out of 5 stars Everyone Could Use This! June 27, 2012

By Cherise Kachelmuss TOP 1000 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Format:Paperback

As a mom of three kids, a wife, a blogger and everything else I have to deal with daily, stress is something that is inevitable. I am constantly looking for ways to deal with stress. The new Chicken Soup for the Soul book "Say Goodbye to Stress" is a classic Chicken Soup book in terms of real life inspirational stories but it is smaller and includes actual medical advice for a healthier you. The advice is from Dr. Jeff Brown of Harvard Medical School. I found that reading the stories made me feel that I am not alone and the advice was perfect. Like I said too this book is smaller which makes it perfect to carry around with you for when you have time for a quick story. It would also be a perfect gift for someone struggling with something, dealing with a change, or really anyone since we all deal with stress at one point or another.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book! June 12, 2012

By Dad of Divas TOP 500 REVIEWER

Format:Paperback

This was a great book that brought together some wonderful practical tips on stress relief. The book is a bit different then many of the Chicken Soup for the Soul books that I have read in the past, but I have to say that I like it! The book brought together a great author that knows what he is talking about and the tips and ideas that he shares are easy to implement and make sense! I have to say that if you have stress in your life (and who doesn't) this would be a great book to read and to have as a part of your own library!
