In The Wisdom of Your Body, clinical psychologist and award-winning researcher Hillary McBride explored the ways many of us inherit a broken understanding of the body and offered a more compassionate, healthy, and holistic perspective on embodied life. In this follow-up book, McBride takes the principles of The Wisdom of Your Body and puts them into action in practical, tangible ways. Practices for Embodied Living offers an experiential guide-centered on prompts, activities, and opportunities for reflection-to support listeners who want to practice embodiment. This approachable book helps individuals and groups resist cultural myths about ideal bodies, get in touch with the goodness of their bodies, and more fully inhabit themselves. Topics include disembodiment, stress and trauma, sexuality, body image, pain and illness, oppression, and more. Each topic includes various exercises to help listeners restore the mind-body connection.

      Hillary L. McBride's audiobook focuses on different ways to connect with one's body. With a gentle, soothing tone and a slow pace, McBride encourages the listener to pay attention to their body in order to establish a healthier connection with their physical self. In particular, she explains how to heal from stress, develop a better body image, and understand the effects that emotions have on one's body. She also offers a different and gentle perspective on pain, addresses body oppression and physical pleasure, and suggests practices to connect body with spirit. Vocalizing her words delicately, she provides a healing and relaxing practical guide on how to be present in the body and appreciate its capabilities. D.Z. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine
