OF YOGA ON WORK, PLAY, AND FAMILY. You're not alone. Everyone is at times a monster, struggling to make sense of the path of indulgent destruction that lies behind and worried about what's ahead. So, rest assured: not wanting to be a monster signals a noble willingness to find more meaning in work, play, and love.Yoga, until recently seen as an activity only for the young, the agile, or kooks, is now widely regarded as a viable tool for physical and mental health. It's mainstream: yoga classes are available by the thousands. It's no longer a question of whether yoga is beneficial, but it's a question of how. Yes, yoga can help with stretching in a cramped airplane, or with breathing through a dreadful meeting, but yoga can also help manage crises, fear, anger, ego, and communication. In effect, yoga can dissolve the monster within.-- "I don't practice yoga to get better at yoga.I practice yoga to get better at living."--This book is a collection of relatable, yoga-inspired insights from everyday situations.
