Product Description
In The 7 Lively Sins, best-selling author Karen Salmansohn turns the familiar 'deadly' sins on their heads and dares us to explore them with gusto. What's more, she unmasks the seven so-much-deadlier sins: emotional masochism, guilt, fear, repression of self-expression, need for speed, worry, and apathy. These are the real spirit-killers. So, be lustful, be joyful. Be greedy, be happy.

LOTS OF WORDS PLUS BEAUTIFUL PICS
I was about to write a review and read what the person below me wrote and Im shocked! This book is very very text dense -- as well as well designed with appealing graphics. I learned a lot of good psychology concepts from this book. The author discusses many psycholgoical theories cincluding "masochistic equalinitrium" where people self sabotage themselves subconsiously -- due to the familiar pain they experienced in their chlldhoods....bring themselves back to the their familair comfort zone -- or rather discomfort zone --as the author explaiins. I also learned about why I might repeat negative behavior in my career -- the author writes about "Keeping Down With The Jones' Syndrome" -- about how we might feel guilty overshadowing friends and loved ones -- epsecially we women. The book was very informative and I recognized myself a lot in these pages. I loved the graphics -- they made understanding the psycholgical terms more fun and more memorable. This book is MUJST for anyone who feels like they have "bad luck" -- and makes you wonder if you are subconsiosly doing things -- perhaps feeling bad about feeling too good for subconsious reasons. The author then goes on to give some very helpfyul techniques to combat against this. Thanks to the author for creating such a great read!

sinfully fun to read...I lusted and was for more, more, more ( ahsnyc )
I am a big admirer of Ms. Salmansohn's books...from her humor books to helpful, insightful psychologically oriented books like this one. I enjoyed this book so much I wound up reading it twice within the week I purchased it...and then bought another for a gift to give my friend. I now just ordered HOW TO BE HAPPY DAMMIT and am eagerly awaiting its arrival! I thoroughly 10000% recommend this book.

Was it a sin to buy this book?
I just bought 3 copies of this book to give to friends. It is a beautiful piece of art with powerfully organized advice about the important stuff that keeps all of us from living life to the fullest.

I was reading my copy of it in the gym this morning. The lady on the exercise machine behind me asked "what is that book you are reading?" I told her about it and she said "I have many friends who should read it." I have many friends who should read it too, but I'm not going to lend my copy to any of them without having a backup at home for myself and one to share with the members of my family.

I'm not going to say that this book has changed my life, but I do think that having read this book twice will help me change my life.

Perfect Pick-Me-Up
I'm a 22 year-old (Catholic) student about to embark upon the daunting "Real World," and my mom just gave me this book. I'm buying it for all my girlfriends as a graduation gift; I've found it entirely self-helpful in a witty, stop-complaining-and live-in-the-now, NOT-your-mom's-advice pocket-sized book. And with each page's creative graphic eye-candy, and laugh-out-loud quotable counsel (I have) it's just incredibly difficult to put down. I'd like to shake Ms. Salmansohn's hand.
