Mind and Body

We are creatures unhelpfully divided between our minds and our bodies: without us quite noticing, it is easy to pay attention to one more than the other and to overlook the distinctive and wise elements that each has to offer us.

This is a book filled with reflections and exercises designed to help us live more harmoniously and maturely within both mind and body. It gives guidance on how to calm our minds with bodily exercises that work on the real sources of our anxieties. It suggest how to be less rigid in, and timid about, our bodies and how to relax into them in a way we might not have done for far too long. It offers ideas on how to accept the way we look, and how to treat the body in order for it to assist the mind in yielding its very best ideas.
