When I learned that Jeff Bridges released a book on Zen and mindfulness last year, I didn’t exactly fall off my meditation pillow (as the NY Times review explained, the book was what you’d expect). The actor who played the unemployed, roach-smoking Dude in the ’90s cult hit The Big Lebowski makes the perfect guru for the chill life.
But high-octane achievers like Russell Simmons and Arianna Huffington? Their books made me stand up and take notice.
I know–I’m confused about why they came out with these books, too. Let’s poke at this.
