From the sloppy guy who farts during yoga class to Zoom yoga participants sneaking wine and cheese off camera to the "how many challenges can you do in one month" challenge to those people who just can't help keeping one eye open during meditation sessions, The Lighter Side of Yoga pokes fun at the entire yoga and mindfulness industry through Mike Nevitt's biting, satiric comics. The cartoons utilize humor, irony, and exaggeration to ridicule the falseness and egoistic motivations that can exist in the mind/body/spirit groups and yoga communities. The true-to-life situations are based on Nevitt's experiences and observations as a full-time yoga and meditation teacher for over twenty-five years. Yoga and mindfulness practitioners will laugh and smile knowingly as they recognize the all-too-familiar scenarios which Nevitt skewers throughout the book.

Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers.

In our lives we encounter many difficult or tricky situations that can make us upset or angry. Susanna prefers to see The Lighter Side of life when this happens. This seems to happen too often, as her readers will see, but as she professes - every experience, good or bad, is fodder for a story! This collection of stories shares many amusing, as well as poignant responses to life's little challenges. Many of the stories share Susanna's husband's journey along his terminal illness pathway-cancer is a beast! It attacks suddenly, without warning and without manners. It is unrelenting, unmerciful and does not care for feelings. It demands power and wins in the end. Despite Susanna's incredible efforts to extend her husband's life, the 'beast' became the victor. The Lighter Side shows that all experiences are opportunities to make the most of life's Pandora's box. It can either be a treasure trove of goodies, as Pandora had expected, or it can be a box of moths! Susanna's sagas are her Pandora's box - her chocolate box of mixed delights that she shares with her friends. Her readers all tell her how they respond to each different story, and she is always fascinated by their different responses-we all respond differently to life's encounters.
