Destressed

A thoughtful, introspective film. Really puts this crazy life in perspective. Garry Pastore has done a remarkable job taking the audience on his quest for Zen and leaves us wanting to go find our own. We travel with him across the country where he encounters people from all walks of life who have experienced a major tragedy in their lives. For example, we meet survivors of Hurricane Sandy in New Jersey, the tornado in Moore Oklahoma as well as a severely disabled vet. Through these meetings, Garry begins to feel gratitude for all he has and realizes he has no right to complain. He ultimately suggests that we should all feel this gratitude and do more of what makes us happy. A captivating film!

I was blown away by this film. It told many different stories with a common thread. It made me laugh and cry, it gave me hope and opened my eyes to the big picture. I really think this film will help people deal with stress. I liked the fact that not one of the people interviewed said "poor me, look how bad my life is". No matter what story was told, and what blow life had dealt them, everyone was positive and smiling. I always say that's why the windshield is huge and the rear view mirror is small. What is in front of you is a lot more important than whats behind you. Fill your head with positive thoughts and there wont be room for negative ones. We all have hope and a future! Great movie. don't miss it.

It was an inspirational look into a mans stress related illness and his way back to healthy, happy life. It was beautifully filmed and a joy to look at. It was heartwarming to see Garry work his way through stress by realizing that love and family are the most important things. The shots of Zion National park were beautiful. As were the pieces of footage in the entire southwestern part of the country. the interviews were touching and heartening. The comedic bits added a good deal of levity to a subject that can be sometimes hard to deal with. The feeling at the end of the movie was a treat, it always feels good to leave a theater with a smile on your face. I would recommend this to all people in need of inspiration or motivation.

Garry Pastore has made one remarkable film which has a message that will stay with me for a very long time. He takes us on a journey to find his Zen and what he encounters along the way will make you laugh and cry. My wife was so taken by this film and it could not have come along at a better time....she too is over stressed and the message that Garry delivers really put things into perspective for her. After viewing the movie we both looked at each other with open mouths while wiping away tears of both joy and hope. I'm sure that almost every single one of us can learn something from this film....who does not have stress in todays world? It took a man like Garry Pastore to bring this to our attention and to show us what can happen if we do not do something to fix this problem. If you have the opportunity to see this film please do so....run and don't walk to the theater!!! I strongly advise anyone and everyone to go and see this fantastic movie! Bravo to Mr. Pastore for making this and hopefully there will be more like this to come! Rick Verso
