About this title

Synopsis

"Jeff Rockwell distills his lifelong dedication to healing practices and generously guides each explorer on their unique embodiment journey."

Guiding readers through their body's anatomy, The Embodiment Book of Bones uncovers the profound wisdom held within our skeletons. Illuminating the transformational benefits of deepening our relationships to our bones, this workbook provides as pathway to well-being and collective healing.

Integrating theory and practice, Jeff Rockwell offers expert insight into the unique function of our bones as living libraries of experience, drawing on scientific research, indigenous wisdom, Eastern healing traditions, phenomenological and somatic understandings, whilst also encouraging readers to engage in varied embodiment exercises. These practical 'embodiments' which include reflective questions, movement explorations and breathing exercises are designed to awaken communication with our bones and allow readers to find a way back to their bodies.

Whether you are looking to enrich your professional practice or enhance a personal connection to the skeletal system, Jeff Rockwell's anatomical expertise, vivid storytelling and effective exercises provide everything you might need to embark on this journey of discovery.
