Useful Book That Works, December 18, 2005 (rated 5 out of 5 stars) Reviewer: amorteur (United States)

"I read a friend’s copy while visiting her. Since I have suffered from neck pain and figured I might as well give it a try. I found that results were immediate. I was also having to confront how bad my habitual posture was."

"I have been doing the basic one-minute routine for about eight months now. My neck pain (I used to have two bands of muscle of almost wooden hardness running down the back “corners” is reduced about 80-80%, and I continue to improve. I also look taller and slimmer, as promised. Friends began saying to me, “you’re so tall!” as if it were a new thing – but then I suppose it was). I I would strongly recommend that you try this program because you will look ten pounds taller and ten pounds slimmer. Maybe more. Now, since then I’ve also lost about ten pounds…but that’s another story."

A Very Excellent Book, May 22, 2005 (rated 5 out of 5 stars)
Joseph Dewey, South Jordan, UT, USA

"This is a great book. I would recommend it to everyone. I’ve been working with my trainer at times to try to help my posture, and this book really helped me to understand some of the underlying concepts."

"This book is written to women, and I am a man, but I thought that this was actually a very good program. There are a couple of references to “men should do this instead,” when they are needed, but I thought that focusing on one gender made the book very clear and very understandable."

"Which reminds me of the coolest thing about this book, which is the illustrations. All of the illustrations are of the same woman. And this is very cook, because I was able to tell really quickly what good posture is and what it was not. By focusing just on women, and by focusing just on one person giving examples of good and bad posture, it made the book very understandable."

"Also, Janice Novak gives the meat of the book in the first ten pages, where she talks about her One Minute to Better Posture, exercise. This is a really cool exercise that will transform your life instantly. The book starts out with a real bang and then the rest of the book supports that initial exercise."

"The only improvement that I would suggest for the next edition is to have pictures of all of the exercises. And have two pictures for the Two-step exercises. This would increase the size of the book by about pages, but I think it would be worth it. I can be slow sometimes and pictures help me a lot."

Practical Help, November 26, 2003 (rated 4 stars out of 5)
Amanda J. Resch

"This book is great for those of us who may have spent many years bent over a desk, and are looking for practical, easy to follow tips on how to straighten ourselves up and to alleviate that mild lower back pain caused by being just a touch out of alignment."

"The writing style is easy to read and understand, and so are the exercise descriptions. The exercises are easy to do (as opposed to some posture books, where the descriptions are hard to follow and just plain practical)."

"My lower back is feeling a lot better thanks to the tips for stretching and standing up straight in this book."

Excellent Information, January 27, 2002 (rated 5 out of 5 stars) A reader

"This book is worth it’s weight in gold!!! The techniques and posture improvement exercises work so fast that I am already receiving compliments on how I look – and it has only been a few weeks. I found out Ms. Novak has a video containing all the exercises (ImproveYourPosture.com). I find it much easier to exercise along with a video than from a book. The video has more exercises than the book but the book contains chapters of info on things like how to re-arrange your computer work station to make it more comfortable for your back, how to adjust your car seat, sleeping positions, etc. All of these chapters contain simple exercises you can do that make a huge difference in your posture and back comfort. The book and video have been a GODSEND for me. This program is better than any other on the market. I know this because I tried them all. Thank you Ms. Novak for your very valuable information."

Amazing Results, January 21, 2002 (rated 5 out of 5 stars)
Venatrix1, Marlborough, MN United States

"I have been using the author’s “one minute to better posture” program for only “one” day, and I can truthfully say that the results have far exceeded anything I could have imagined."

"One page 6, the author states, “Psychological studies have shown that good posture exudes health and confidence, while slouching signals insecurity, weakness, and self-doubt.” Based on my experience, this statement is right on target."

"I had several errands to run ,and while doing them I continuously applied the author’s one-minute-to-better-posture and I couldn’t believe the number of male heads that turned, but the clincher came when a guy walked over and told me that his friend was interested in meeting me. Neither one of them was older than 25. I am 43!!!! I haven’t had attention like this in years, and I did absolutely nothing different today, except working on my posture."

"This book claims that you will look 10 years younger and 10 pounds thinner. I agree wholeheartedly. If these are the kinds of results the book provides after I’ve read just two chapters, I can’t wait to see what happens after I’ve finished the remainder."

"While this book may not improve every reader’s love life, I’m convinced tat it WILL improve everyone’s health and appearance."

A wonderful book! December 1, 2001 (rated 5 out of 5 stars)
Reviewer: juxstapose, Pawtucket, RI, United States

"The techniques in this book released back tension I did not even know existed. I had become accustomed to bad posture. If you have bad posture this book will show you how to fix it."

Amazing, February 8, 2001 (rated 5 out of 5 stars)
Reviewer: A reader

"Janice’s book and video have worked wonders for me. I no longer get a stiff neck when I work at my computer. I sleep better than ever before…Great resource!"

Posture, Get It Straight, January 4, 2001 (rated 5 out of 5 stars)

"I found this book to be very informative. I have also have the video from the author and find it very helpful. I thought I would share the info with all readers. I wrote to the author at JaniceNovak.com and purchased the video through her toll-free number 1-800-756-7934. I’m glad I did the research. The video is so easy to follow. Thanks, Janice"

This Works! November 23, 2000 (rated 5 out of 5 stars)
Reviewer: Litirir (Traverse City, MI USA)

"After using the exercises in this book for about a week, I noticed that I no longer felt nagging upper back tension. Then, inspired, I purchased Janice Novak’s video (rubber bands come with it), and started using it about 5 times a week. The video has the same information, but it is easier for me to follow along with a video rather than flip through pages. The neat thing is that several friends have asked me, “Have you lost weight?” I haven’t, but I look thinner and feel terrific. I’ve had rounded shoulders for 56 years, but because of this program, my posture has improved enormously. This book should be a best seller."

I had immediate results! April 28, 1999 (rated 5 out of 5 stars)

"Chronic back pain has kept me from getting a good night’s sleep. I didn’t know what to do about it until I read Janice Novak’s book. After my firt time trying the exercises I felt my back getting stronger. I love doing the exercises because I always feel better afterwards. “Posture, Get It Straight” is well-written and the exercises are easy to follow. I recommend it to anyone who has back pain."

Terrific!!! Very Informative and helpful! A treasure!, April 24, 1999 (5 out of 5 stars)

"This easy reading, well illustrated book is a terrific guide for those of us who would like to maintain or improve our posture. It really is true that one can look 10 pounds thinner and 10 years younger if you stop slouching. I enjoyed it very much and I will incorporate Janice’s suggestions as part of my daily life."

Extremely useful information, April 16, 1999

"This book is filled with excellent information. The one minute to better posture produced very quick results. When I changed my workstation as specified in this book, my neck stopped hurting. The tips for adjusting a car seat are a life saver. I thought my poor posture was hopeless but the info and exercises in this book really delivered. The best $12 bucks I’ve ever spent. I highly recommend this book. I saw the author on the Oprah Winfrey show and was very impressed."
