Overload: How to Unplug, Unwind, and Unleash Yourself from the Pressure of Stress Hardcover – March 1, 2016

Reading this book has been such an insightful revelation, that I really do not know where or how to begin. Firstly,Amazon needs to revise its grading system... if I could give this 10 stars I would. A practical, humorous and essential companion, OVERLOAD by Joyce Meyer has to be on your bookshelf.Not far into the book, I found myself saying...'that's me,' over and over again. Then I discovered I was only at the introduction! Joyce has such an in-depth understanding of the human heart that is both reassuring and comforting. As I turned each page I felt a peace descend upon me and relief that I am not the only one...I felt I was in a therapy session. Thank you to Joyce for writing this great book - it's the best one I have read...ever!

Simple easy to read and practical! We all know most of it but when it is explained like this and laid out so you can actually apply it in your life, that is just what the doctor ordered (literally). I was so stressed out that reading the book on stress, stressed me out (that's bad). Little by little I started to incorporate what she teaches and now love the way I feel. I still have stress but I recognize it and it doesn't effect me like it did before. Most of the time we just pass up and skip the study guide, this is one case the study guide was great to have. Highly recommend!

I have been drowning in an overload of family and health problems for the last few years. This book could not have come out at a more perfect time in my life. I had been seeing a counselor for help with the stress but once I started reading Joyce's new book and applying what I read, in my own life, have I been able to discontinue the counseling sessions and go forward with a new outlook on life and how to handle the stressful situations that may come, leaning on Him who is always with me.

I'm not an avid church goer or Bible thumper, but I do suffer from stress. This book, for the most part, will not teach you how to eliminate stress, but how to recognize it and change how you respond to it. As always, Joyce Meyer uses her own personal and professional life to illustrate her point without seeming preachy. This is an easy read, and helped me reframe how I look at stress.

If you will read and study this wonderful book,not once but several times it will change your perspective on how you can help with stress. I am a registered nurse and have worked many years as a psych nurse. The Word and prayer and suggestions in this book will help anyone deal with stress.

Joyce writes in a conversational tone that invites you in and lets you relax while she opens up her heart to you. Sharing both personal and historical stories, she shares where she made life more difficult than it needed to be and how God helped her turn it all around. Much of her advice is biblical, simple, and down-to-earth which makes it easily applicable.

I love Joyce Meyer, when I sit down to read any of her books it feels like advice from a good friend. Buy this book, Joyce is a very inspirational person and has helped me get through some very trying times.

This book was very informative and easy to read. Many points were realistic and relatable.

Great book, would recommend to anyone who feels they are facing emotional or physical burnout through stress. Not only does the book contain a common sense approach to combating the harmful effects of stress, it also provides a comforting and reassuring approach and gives the reader the power to be able to overcome and take control of the situation rather than stress controlling you.

I was feeling stressed and was looking for a book to help me de stress and focus on what I need to. This book did exactly that. I’ve enjoyed reading it. The chapters are not too long and are very easy to digest. I love the summary at the end of each chapter. I can see that it’s a book I will pick up to remind myself to not be overwhelmed by life.

This is a useful book to read if one is suffering from stress or being overloaded by life events. Joyce Meyer is a good teacher and is using her life`s experience to advise people on how to cope with stress.

I have only read a portion at this time due to busy life, I'm over loaded at this moment in time, and so far it is a good read, as usual Joyce can put the point across. Hope to add to this book review at a later date. Yes I would recommend this book today.

An excellent life changing book that I recommend to anyone who work in stressful environment's. I bought copies for others who work with me to experience the same joy I got from reading this book. Mercia
