What Your Body Needs You to Know: Get in touch with your inner wisdom

Learn how to decode your body’s signals and unlock lasting wellbeing. Tight shoulders? Lumbar pain? Mysterious aches? These are the sorts of symptoms we tend to explain away, minimise as ‘niggles’ or pretend aren’t there as we soldier on regardless. But what if we took the time to slow down and actually listen to our bodies? Perhaps we would find that they have something to tell us, about how we move through the world or about the emotions we’re holding on to. Perhaps if we learned to tune in to our bodies, we could even release past traumas and live with more ease, joy, and grace. Psychologist Dr Andrea Traldi, founder of the Institute of Applied Somatics, certainly thinks so, and this book he will show you how to tune within and unlock the deep, abiding wisdom of your body.

Slow down, listen deeply and unlock the wisdom within your own body. Read more
