The Wall Street Journal
(10/3/02) "I select the 30-second 'Monolith of Mastery' from
Office Yoga: At Your Desk Exercises by Diana Fairechild. I'm surprised
by how fast the mental and facial change this requires eases my tension.
I'd give office yoga an 'A' for both the depth and duration of its effect
