TRAPPED IN THE RAT-RACE? Award Winning Stress Buster Shows the Way Out

Online, May 28, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Vancouver, BC- Do you feel stressed from the minute you wake up to the moment you fall asleep? Cell-phones, blackberries and emails rule in business and personal life and most people are scrambling just to keep up. The Mini-Retreat Solution helps busy executives, frenzied soccer moms and overworked managers to relax and refresh in minutes no matter how busy their lives.

The Mini-Retreat Solution received two gold medals. One from the prestigious Living Now Book Awards and the second from Next Generation Indie Book Awards. Author and life coach, Julia James will be in New York to attend the award ceremonies, visit Book Expo America and celebrate her success. James says "I am so proud and happy to receive these recognitions! My biggest vision is that people learn how to relax and refresh in the midst of it all, no matter how busy their lives. Being recognized through these award brings me closer to realizing this vision."

Research shows that several short periods of relaxation throughout the day can have a tremendous positive impact on your concentration and productivity. The Mini-Retreat Solution teaches busy people how to manage stress on a daily basis. The book offers more than 80 proven ways to refresh your energy, and weave moments of deep relaxation into your daily routine, no matter how hectic your life. The Mini-Retreat Solution is such a useful and accessible tool to manage stress that it may very well become the next Chicken Soup for the Soul.

"Many people believe they have to have a weekend at the spa, a trip to the mountains, or a tropical vacation to relax," James said. "With Mini-Retreats you can bring deep relaxation into your daily life anytime, anywhere: at home, in your car, at your desk, in nature." Phil Bolsta, author of Sixty Seconds comments "If you are marching toward anxiety and burnout, Julia James offers some wise advice: Retreat!
