Inspiration for Climbing Out of Life’s Stress Pool
Got stress? How about a humorous, 40-day journey of self-discovery? Debora Coty, the author of Too Blessed To Be Stressed pulls it off in 40 chapters that might just change life.
I found Too Blessed To Be Stressed a great release at the end of my crazy days. The chapters are well-organized and include discovery questions at the end making it a very personal experience. I love the humor that starts from the get go and the chapter titles are a hoot: Chic Chat, Keep the Faith, Baby (Dependence on God), Darth Wader (Resisting Temptation), Pacifiers to Puberty (Mothering) and so much more. There’s even a chapter that deals with menopause, aptly titled, “Things My Mother Never Told Me”. It is all easily translated into everyday life and read just like Coty is sitting in the knitting circle with you.
It’s not a solve all, but I know it just felt good to laugh and I laughed out loud so often while reading this book. It is a delightful take on being a woman and the stress that runs rampant through our day to day life.
“Welcome to the slightly frazzled sisterhood that shares your distress about stress. With the hectic lifestyles we lead in these unpredictable times, we just can’t seem to avoid worrying about choking finances, impossible schedules, unstable health issues, or a myriad of other stressors that steal our peace.”
Do your to do lists have footnotes? Has your fam suggested a rabies shot because your bite has surpassed Rover’s? Maybe it’s time for a healthy dose of truth gift-wrapped in humor. With her own offbeat brand of wit and near-wisdom, inspirational humorist Debora Coty addresses the heart-needs of desperate women drowning in the churning everyday stress-pool of busyness. In Too Blessed to Be Stressed, you’ll find simple, practical steps for attaining the peace that you crave as you struggle with the stresses of finances, health, career, relationships, self-image and family. You’ll discover healing, refreshment, and revitalization for your own spirit, body and mind through heart-changing real life stories, biblically based insights, and short chapters for on-the-run convenience. |
Too Blessed to Be Stressed is a delightful read that I encourage anyone frazzled or thinking they might be soon to read. It offers personal reflection and lots of humor. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am looking forward to Coty’s next book, More Beauty Less Beast, set for release in 2012.
