Falling Down Getting Up

A yoga teacher's wise, witty memoir about life and near-death: "In a world full of new-age nonsense, Michael is a true gem." —Jessica Biskind, MA, LPC   Michael Harris has had his ups and downs in life. There were a few big falls, like losing more than half of his liver in an accident at twelve years old, becoming an alcoholic by sixteen—endangering what was left of that liver—and nearly losing his legs from vascular disease at twenty-seven. But once Michael gets you through the gory details of the mess he found himself in, he'll tell you what he did to get back up out of that mess—with plenty of entertainment and inspiration along the way.   From his brushes with death to his passion for life, and his tale of how he ultimately became a successful yoga teacher, Falling Down Getting Up just might help you get back up, too.
