STOP SCREAMING AT THE MICROWAVE!: How to Connect Your Disconnected Life

While many self-help books focus on how to organize, prioritize, and manage your time in order to operate at top efficiency, Stop Screaming at the Microwave takes a refreshingly different tack--slow down, start connecting with people, and learn how to feel good. This short but friendly abridged audiobook provides simple ideas to put you more in touch with your spouse, family, colleagues, and yourself, based on the philosophy that the more connected you are to others, the better you'll feel. Although you may have heard some of these ideas before, author Mary LoVerde reads them with an infectious enthusiasm that makes Stop Screaming a welcome change of pace for harried working people.
