It worked for me. I like easy. I like quick. This book has bothquick and easy ways to make life less stressful. It's definitely thebest christmas gift I can think of. Do yourself a favor and pick it up.

This whimsical book is a serious tool for executives. If you've ever complained that you're stressed out, rushed for time or generally just feel like (...), we challenge you to read this book. There's no rocket science here, but the simple wisdom that Lois Levy doles out might just spark an epiphany. This is common-sense stuff (sleep, play, laugh, quit worrying) that you'd think it would be impossible to forget, even though we all do. We [...] are not joking when we recommend this little book to all executives. You'll feel a little better after you read it, and much better once you follow some of Levy's advice.

Not only does this book remind you how to enjoy life's simple pleasures, it also introduces some carefree ideas and exercises to help relieve common everyday stress factors.......and with a humorous twist! Easy reading and light enough to carry along with you! It has been a perfectly enjoyable gift!

As the president of a growing high tech organization I found this book valuable for myself and my employees. It gives you a ways to slow yourself down in a positive manner and thus helps you focus. One of my business objectives is looking for different ways to constructively help my company and still have fun. This book meets these requirements perfectly. I recommend this book to anyone, at any level, in business and have recently bought a copy for all my employees.

What a great book! As a psychotherapist, I've read more self-help books than I can count. Undress Your Stress distills tremendous wisdom into short, witty, enjoyable and easy-to-read chapters. I'm going to give the book to everyone I know!

AS a nonprofit management consultant I am constantly on the lookout for material I can use with my busy, stressed-out clients. This is the book! Whether you read it from cover to cover (as I did because it is enormously amusing) or choose to select one activity at a time, this book is a great stress-reducer. My favorite idea so far is singing loudly in the car to any and all music that appeals to you. Particularly useful in rush hour traffic! After purchasing this book, I immediately bought another dozen for holiday gifts.

Being that this is the thousandth time I've been on Amazon, mostly to look at books, and that this is the first time I've ever written a review for one, (though I'm an AVID reader), that should tell you something in itself. I enjoyed this book tremendously!! I have read other self-help books, and while some of them were good, a lot of them simply do not have approaches that fit into today's hectic world. This book changed all of that for me. I was wandering through a bookstore when this book jumped out at me, and when I picked it up and read a few pages I was delighted at the simple techniques suggested. Although the book is small, it has a lot of BIG ideas that can be used by anyone. Most of the suggestions are free to do, so you don't have to spend a ton of money trying to find a nice way to relax, (which seems to be a popular theme in a lot of self-help books). The author uses her wit, and humor to inspire you in unique ways. It is a delightful read, and the ideas help you truly relax. She also lets you know that there is no wrong way to do her de-stressing ideas, like meditation. If you don't buy the book from this site, then I suggest that the next time you are in a bookstore, at least seek out the book and read a few pages. It won't take long and you might be thankful you did. I know I am! I'd recommend this book to ANYONE who feels overwhelmed or stressed on a regular basis!!

This is a very superficial read. The title is better than the book. Don't waste your time.

I loved this book! All the suggestions were very "do-able", and unlike other stress-reduction books I do not feel like I need to burden myself with yet another "program" to fit into my busy life. I immediately went out and bought bubbles for my office, and I enjoy watching the delight on everyone's face that sees and blows them! The author's sense of humour is a treat.
