The Mind Movement : Integrating Body, Breath and Movement in Therapy

The Mind Movement grew from a social movement with two main areas of social change. First, for individuals to talk about and learn to take accountability for their mental health. Second, people know that moving their body and exercising improves their mental health and wellness, so the motivation to move comes from wanting to be well and to care for themselves, mentally and physically. Reading The Mind Movement will give mental health practitioners the confidence to integrate practical tools creatively into their clinical practice, in person and online. It also reiterates the deep connection between mind and body, and shares the wisdom of neuroscience, the autonomic nervous system, and the vagus nerve, all of which will benefit clients and enable a deeper understanding of mind and body. The Mind Movement is essential reading for practising and trainee psychotherapists, counsellors, and yoga teachers. It is highly recommended for all health professionals and the general reader interested in learning more about the intertwined relationship between mind and body in a highly accessible, enjoyable way.
