Incredibly Inspiring
I found this book to be just what I needed to snap out of the anxiety ridden rut I was in. I recommend it to anyone who is feeling sorry for themselves or are taking life too seriously.

WOW -- Hillarious
I never thought to use humor to reduce my stress, especially at work. Her stories of her family and personal events helped me to see all of the funny things that really stressed me out that would fall into the category of "the little stuff." I really enjoyed the anticdotes as well. There was a drawback, there are a few things that she doesn't discuss in detial therefore making it hard to try them, but over all this is a very good book for all of you who are stressed to the max.

Insightfully Funny
I checked this book out of the library to help me during a depression. I'd already watched Loretta's video, "The Joy of Stress" during treadmill workouts and laughed myself silly. Periodically bursting out laughing while reading "Relax--You May Have Only a Few Minutes Left" I decided to buy the book. Loretta's wit and humor are excellent tools to help reframe a negative focus, and to look at things in a more positive light even by accepting the absurdity around us. While Loretta's insights are remarkably simple they are also profound, particularly in the way they inspire change within us. With Loretta's help I've found that laughing is way more fun than whining! Similar Products
