May Book of the Month

by Patricia McGuire, LPC-MHSP

The Book of the Month for May 2024 is Bodyfulness: Somatic Practices for Presence, Empowerment and Waking Up in This Life by Christine Caldwell, PhD.

This book is a fantastic resource on embodied living. From the back cover: “Breathing, sensing, moving - the ways we know our body - carry a tremendous contemplative potential, and yet, we so often move through our days unaware of or in conflict with our physical selves.”

With tangible, research-based practices at the end of each chapter, the author guides us through not only why it’s so important to connect to our bodies, but also how to connect to our bodies - right here, right now. Incorporating “bodyful” practices into our every day lives will help us navigate emotions, feel attuned in our relationships, and transform our awareness.
