I arrived at a strange dinner just in time to hear my new favorite yoga story. This is paraphrased, so you’ll have to forgive any errors, ok?

A friend of the guy telling the story was having trouble at work. She was depressed and not really feeling her crappy job. She went to speak to the people at human resources about change, perhaps find some way to maintain her commitment to the company. She waited in the lobby and was called in to speak to the councilor.

“What seems to be the trouble?” She asked.

“Well, I’ve been depressed. I haven’t been myself, and I’m just not enjoying my job anymore.”

The woman reached over and placed her hand on the troubled employee’s arm. “You know honey, I read in your file that you have been doing some yoga?”

“Yeah.”

“Well, you know. When you do the yoga, you let Jesus out… ” She paused seriously. “And you let Satan in.”

$10,000.00 and some extra vacation time later, our friend has a new career.
