Ecosomatics: Embodiment Practices for a World in Search of Healing
This practical guide explains how ecosomatics—embodiment work for personal and planetary health—can help us shift our consciousness through expanded listening with all our senses and embracing the interconnections between our inner and outer worlds.
The book offers ecosomatic and embodiment exercises to help you expand perception, develop somatic intelligence, let go of limiting beliefs, lessen fear, anxiety, and alienation, and open to levels of awareness that allow you to tune in to a greater vision of what is humanly possible.
Writing and the Body in Motion: Awakening Voice through Somatic Practice
Writing and the Body in Motion: Awakening Voice through Somatic Practice is based upon my practices as a dancer, writer, healer, somatic practitioner, meditator, and teacher.

Written from an integral perspective of mind-body-spirit, discussion and exercises draw on dance, psychology, neuroscience and meditation to guide personal exploration and creative expression.
