Yoga


In the second chapter of my book, Lucky introduces the inmates of the prison to the fundamentals of Yoga. Like most people, they are ignorant of this ancient Indian practice and imagine it to be a series of poses where people either stand on their heads or on one leg, with arms folded and eyes closed.

Last week I got an email which said that there are two kinds of Yoga ................

The Indian one which requires a lots of patience, practice and dedication. This was
demonstrated by the great Indian Yoga Guru doing a perfect setubandhasan - or a backward bend pose, with the help of a prop.



The second kind of Yoga is the Irish one, went the mail and had the picture of a drunk Irishman doing the same pose, flopped dead drunk on a chair!


Find out what kind of Yoga Lucky teaches the inmates!
