Summary: An excellent follow-up to "Finding Your Own North Star"
Comment: I was thrilled to see a new book from Martha Beck, and since I work in a bookstore, I was able to start reading it before it was released. I meditate, so although I wouldn't say that the first "menu item" is easy, I was able to skip to week two automatically. Don't skip it if you don't do it! It certainly is essential to my life, and helps me stay focused. Each week/chapter adds another dimension to the "diet", and expands your life in some other way. As I am impatient, I can't simply read a chapter a week, so I am finishing the book and then incorporating the weeks as I go along. I appreciate Ms. Beck's sense of humor and frank honesty. She has been a lifestyle coach for quite a few years and offers excellent advice. If you missed "Finding Your Own North Star", be sure and check it out.
"Excuse me, My Life is Waiting" and "Extreme Success" are also excellent titles along this same line.

Summary: Not quite as good as North Star
Comment: I read this book after reading -- and loving -- Follow Your North Star (Martha Beck's earlier self-help book). While The Joy Diet has some excellent advice, it lacks the depth of her earlier book. Still, there were definitely some light-bulb moments for me as I read the book -- like when she talks about the need to make time for "feasts" throughout your day (and she's not talking food). I will definitely be waiting for Martha's next book, however. She is a wonderful writer.

Summary: Great book to get you out of a rut! :)
Comment: This book was a surprising help to change my life for the better. It really had some great ideas to follow to add fun back into my life! As a recovering workaholic, the ideas in this book really showed me things missing from my life & small steps I could take to make changes. I highly recommend this book!
