Britt Daniel recommended Plastic Ono Band by John Lennon in Music (curated)

Album Favorite

"It's been with me for a long time. It's my favourite solo album by a Beatle. I've covered several of the songs on it. Spoon use to do 'Love'. Not too long ago we did 'Remember' and I did 'Isolation' in my solo shows for a long long time. It's as comfortable to me as a Beatles record in that I've listened to it so many times. It's a record where he's embracing pain and talking about it, talking about what he's learned in therapy. I don't know if that's done too well very often but I feel like he knocked it out of the park with 'Mother', 'God' and 'Isolation'."

The SuperStress Solution: 4-week Diet and Lifestyle Program

Book Rating
4.5/5

Roberta Lee has put a name to the layers upon layers of stress that eventually break down our bodies and ruin our lives—it’s called SuperStress. She tells of the physical and mental affects that this SuperStress has on us. She also gives us ways to fix it—without drugs.

This handbook is holistic. Therapy means physical therapy, exercise, meditation and breathing control. Prescriptions means herbs and health foods and vitamins. Lee is not taking away the symptoms of stress-related bad health—she’s fixing the problem behind it.

The program outlined in this book is one you can follow with or without a doctor helping you along. She gives physical exercises and stretches that you can do, a two-week food plan to get you going on a better diet, journaling prompts to learn how to release your stress in words, and lots of other things.

I would recommend reading two parts of the book at once: Read through the first half, a little bit at a time, and learn about the science behind our stress, at the same time follow the program outlined in the back of the book. This way you’re reading and changing your lifestyle at the same time.

The only reason I don’t give it a 5/5 is because some of the meditation aspects in this book are self-centered, and by that I don’t mean prideful and greedy, I mean self-focused. I have learned that focusing on self will not release any stress, it will only pile on more. The only true way to release everything mentally is to lean on Christ. The journaling prompts in the book are in line with that, but some of the affirmations that are to be recited while meditating are so self-centered that I cannot see how any relief would come of it. That is coming from me as a Christian.

 The SuperStress Solution is a fantastic book for people who are in heavy stress and need a way out without the use of drugs or extensive therapy. Recommended for ages 16+.
