Body, Breath, and Consciousness: A Somatics Anthology

The Body, Breath and Mind anthology, edited by Ian McNaughton, is a collection of articles on somatics, mind-body integration, and holistic approaches to the treatment of developmental and traumatic injuries. Each article in this anthology addresses the somatic, emotional, mental, interpersonal, social, and spiritual aspects of the self. The book focuses on the connection between the body and mind, exploring the practices and theories of this popular field of psychology, including body dynamics, somatic experience, and bioenergetics. Ian McNaughton has gathered the knowledge of a select group of innovators who have formed the core of his approach to body psychotherapy.

This book is a valuable, useful resource for both experienced practitioners (such as body therapists, body therapy practitioners, mental health professionals, educators, and medical personnel) and those just starting out in their careers.
