Too Blessed to Be Stressed

This book is on the mark for anyone not just women who are moving at a very fast pace and need to find peace and comfort in their daily lives. The Prayer of page 12, I call "The Stress Reliever's Prayer" is very powerful and has been of great comfort to everyone I have shared it with. Dr. Cook's approach to women of the Bible brought them in to the "sisterhood" of my life like I have never understood before. I highly recommend this book at a training I do on stress management called "Are you too stressed to be blessed?" For me personally, the book has been a great source of peace and comfort and a guide to seek and trust in God. Once reading it and not all at one time, I recommed her other book, SisterStrength as a companion to TBTBS. She indeed takes you on a personal journey to find less stress and more peace in your life. If you are seeking to manage the stress in your life this is a good investment to start with. TDBS

A great book to take to your next level of success...

I took this book with me to the hair salon. A stylist sitting a little distance away asked if what the title listed was possible. Answering her was easy...the blessed state of mind from reading the book caused my lips to open to a resounding YES!!!! We as women are indeed "too blessed to be stressed". Thank you Dr. Cook for bringing life into such a dynamic perspective!!!!

A celebration of Healing and Praise!

Too Blessed to Be Stressed found me on the first pages of the book and ministered to my spirit throughout. Often we get so caught up in the drama that we lose sight of the choices we make that create our scenarios. I found myself humming me back to a centered wholeness and peace that I don't want to let go. Dr. Suzan Johnson Cook, thank you for this wonderful work. It has certainly blessed my life and the lives of my Sisterfriends!

Life Changing

This book was a God-send. I recommended it to my sister who is a Federal Judge. Growing up in Kannapolis, NC (only 8 miles from Concord) I felt an immediate bond with the author. This book is a must for every woman. You will laugh, you may cry, you will sing, you will shout hallelujah but most of all, you will never be the same.

Fantastic

Dr. Johnson-Cook has put it all in perspective. Life is too short and God is too good for us to be stressed out over the barriers put in our pathway. This book gives you a guide to becoming closer to God and to understanding what His plan is for you. This book is a must read for not only women, but men who are feeling the pressures of the world. Dr. Johnson-Cook's writing style is so down to earth. She makes you feel like you are having a conversation with you best friend!
