Body Aware

When we talk about movement, most of us think "exercise." But the way we move our bodies-how we walk, roll, dance, stretch, connect, and take up space-is about so much more than physical fitness. Our movements impact our mental and emotional health . . . and when we change the way we move, we can change the way we live. Licensed clinical professional counselor and board-certified dance and movement therapist Erica Hornthal-aka "The Therapist Who Moves You"-takes listeners on a step-by-step journey, showing how a mindful movement practice can: - Help ease symptoms of depression - Build a greater sense of connection and intimacy with loved ones - Slow down thoughts to lessen anxiety and panic - Impact how-and what-we feel Listeners will learn to identify where they physically hold their emotions; understand and interpret their body's unique language; explore bodily sensations; identify emotional blockages; and upgrade harmful thought cycles to patterns that instead foster resilience, emotional regulation, and productivity. Hornthal's guide is inclusive, non-prescriptive, and helps us each discover the kind of movement that works best for us.
