Ah, Brezsny.

I have just finished skimming Hiroyuki Nishigaki's surprising book How to Good-Bye Depression: If You Constrict Anus 100 Times Everyday. Malarkey? or Effective Way? Though I haven't had a chance to try out his simple and revolutionary approach to mental health, I feel confident about recommending it to you. It's time to take drastic, perhaps unconventional measures to disperse the funky moods that have plagued you recently. Regular butt-squeezing may be able to accomplish what no other therapy can. As one satisfied reader testified after achieving miracles with this technique: "Free your ass and your mind will follow."


I'm not frightened that he's recommending this. I'm frightened that he isn't the first person I've seen recommend this.

Well, I'm not generally depressed. So I'm not sure if I'm a good candidate. But if I seem to glow a little more when you next see me, that's probably a good recommendation for the technique :-P

It's based on Buddist principles, weirdly. Though that's up there, recommendation-wise, with "it's based on actual math".
