Description
Embodied living is a more compassionate and holistic approach to understanding our bodies. Hillary L. McBride offers a fresh perspective on embodied life, helping individuals and groups to resist cultural myths about ideal bodies and improve self-esteem. This book is an experiential guide that includes writing prompts, activities, and exercises to help readers restore the mind-body connection.
Through topics such as disembodiment, stress and trauma, sexuality, body image, pain and illness, and oppression, this body image workbook provides various exercises to help readers get in touch with the goodness of their bodies and more fully inhabit themselves. A leader's guide is also included for small groups, making it a valuable resource for individuals and groups looking to practice embodiment.
