Yoga? No! Shmoga! (e-book) (used book) | Lawrence Grobel | bookbook.eu

Description

Google "Yoga" and 103,000,000 items come up. One hundred and three million! Yet for everyone who practices yoga, there are dozens of others who just sit and watch. Yoga? No! Shmoga! is for those who sit and watch, as well as for those who actually do yoga and have a sense of humor. Best-selling author Lawrence Grobel has ventured into satire with this look at the lighter side of yoga. Shmoga is the Lazy Man's Way to Inner Peace. It's like a non-diet book for ice cream lovers. In 43 short chapters it pokes fun at sports, religion, exercise, Wall Street, art, entertainment, and people looking for an excuse to not do anything more than lift a finger. Yoga wives can give it to their couch-potato husbands. Or those husbands can give it to their wives to show them why fiddling with the remote is safer (and thus healthier!) than strenuous stretching into unnatural shapes. Often absurd, sometimes profound, and always whimsical, in this world full of books that focus on discipline and self-improvement, this is a breath of fresh air. Though a satire, there is a lot of wisdom in Yoga? No! Shmoga! And some very good advice. It teaches you to take charge of your life, but in a very clever way. Doing Shmoga actually makes sense!
