Yeah Dave's Guide to Livin' the Moment: Getting to Ecstasy Through Wine, Chocolate, and Your iPod Playlist

I took Dave's Yoga +Chocolate workshop at the Midwest Yoga Conference in May...loved his class (especially when he came over by me during Warrior 2 pose & introduced himself personally~plus love the song "Angie")! Instantly knowing I had to get his book. Then attended his lunchtime keynote & had him sign it. This book is AWESOME! I didn't want it to end...I can so relate to some of the stories. It also really makes you think of how to be in the moment & not to let them just pass you by. It's funny with those crazy awe moments, beautiful by feeling the love & of course delicious by just thinking about the chocolate! I have quoted several items from the book in my yoga classes & will continue to do so! I absolutely recommend this book to everyone...you won't want to put it down! You rock Dave! Peace.

My most favorite quote from the book. The book is soooooo chock full of nuggets of wisdom and great humor. I work with newly diagnosed cervical cancer patients and I will now recommend this book as part of their healing through humor method of recovery! Thanks for an awesome book Dave. It's just what we all need to brighten our day and make the most of ALL of our moments.

I am not one for self-help type books, as I'm sure many others feel that way too... but, this is so much more. I went to the reading and signing event at Vosges Chocolat in Chicago, after hearing Dave read two short chapters, I was hooked (line and sinker!). Sometimes throughout the book you feel a little bad for Dave, and a bit better for yourself- but, by the end you understand why he is willing to admit these often horrible and embarrassing situations, there is always a life lesson behind it. A must read for those needing a little guidance in living a simpler life- and for those just needing some good laughs.

Yeah Dave's Guide to Livin' the Moment is a funny, honest, and uncomplicated must read for anyone looking for the lighter side of enlightenment. Yeah Dave uses highly relatable personal tales of life highs & lows, lessons learned & discoveries made to demonstrate his method of self-learning & enlightenment. The path to "Livin' the Moment" is simple and straightforward utilizing tools every reader has within them and acts as a guide through the clutter of the modern mind with a return to life's true happy places that lie within us all. As with his unique style to teaching yoga, Yeah Dave speaks to the unpretentious and down-to-earth folks who appreciate the joy brought from the lil' things in life; a glass of wine, a piece of chocolate, and a great play list.

I couldn't put it down. It made me laugh out loud and touched my heart. David Romanelli, through sharing his personal experiences, teaches us to pay attention to our lives and find meaning in the now, amid the chaos of email, iPods and too-busy schedules. Excellent read!
