Real Men Do Downward Dog

By Greg Cawley

For many men, their life path seems pretty straightforward: go to school, get a good job, find a loving partner, raise children together, work hard, be strong, support and provide… But what do you do when, suddenly, in your mid-years, everything starts to unravel?

 

'Yoga' isn't likely to be the first answer to jump into the mind of a middle-aged man in crisis – but perhaps it should be!

 

In Real Men Do Downward Dog, Greg Cawley demystifies yoga for men, challenges common fears and stereotypes men have about yoga, and demonstrates how yoga's amazing benefits have changed his life – and how it can change yours, too.

 

A candid account of Greg's journey from self-confessed 'normal' bloke and serious businessman, to a man who faced losing everything, to dedicated yoga warrior at age 50, Real Men Do Downward Dog offers hope and inspiration to men everywhere who want to learn to bend so they don't break.
