Order Addicted to Hurry and Savoring Pace Life Lines
A. Addicted to Hurry: Spiritual Strategies for Slowing Down (Judson Press, 2003)
Addicted to Hurry challenges the taken-for-granted notion that life has to be fast to be fun. The book has been acclaimed for its fanciful and fun remedy for speeded up living, learning to live life at a "savoring pace." Many who read Addicted to Hurry comment on its clarity and beauty. Jim Royston writes, "Jones combines a scholarly mind with a profound imagery of language to challenge his readers to "relish" rather than "rush" through life."

B. Savoring Pace Life Lines
Savoring Pace Life Lines, Dr. Jones's first creation, is a fifty-card collection containing provocative memorable phrases that promote meaningful behavioral changes. They offer potent "counter-callings" to the cry of "more, more, faster, faster" that we hear everyday. Here are some of the lines that will lead you to new living energy and balance:
Sign a Peace Treaty With Conditions You Have No Control Over
Live Near a Smile
Don't Let Fear Shoplift Your Dreams
Joy is an Inside Job
Find the Power in the Pause
No Sitting; No Soaring
Grace Yourself
Cards adorn desks, dash boards, and walls around the country. Some have added life lines to their email signature. Perhaps the greatest testimony is from a woman who brought the cards into surgery with her. As one person comments, "The life lines are sage advice from a soaring soul."
