Einführung in Body–Mind Centering

Physical movement also occurs in feeling, perception, and consciousness, and the mind is embodied in movement patterns. The occupational therapist and dancer Bonnie Bainbridge-Cohen developed a language for the mind of anatomical structures and physiological systems through over 35 years of research. She starts from the development of movement in children, works with various touch techniques, and demonstrates how we can reorganize patterns. This book by Linda Hartley, the most important European student of Bainbridge-Cohen, not only conveys the theoretical understanding of Body-Mind Centering but also illustrates practical work and offers exercises for the immediate experience of anatomical body systems and patterns of movement development. Body-Mind Centering unfolds the potential of innate bodily intelligence that every person carries within themselves and reveals the knowledge and wisdom that lie in the subjective depths of each individual. "Introduction to Body-Mind Centering is beautiful, poetic, concrete, and the book resonates with the essence of the intuitive process that underlies this path of embodiment. Thank you, Linda." Bonnie Bainbridge-Cohen.
