I really enjoyed listening to Claire's story. She made me want to start yoga. Claire's story is a very familiar one. A working mom trying to make her life work. She made me think about things in a whole new light.
Initially, I found this book very interesting. I enjoy reading about yoga and people who practice it. That is what I expected this to be about; and it was, at first. Dederer starts this book by explaining why she’s considering yoga (difficult pregnancy/first couple of months as a mother), then begin...
“We didn’t want to look good.
