Pushing back against a consumerist, pleasure-centric somatics industry that privileges product over process, Abigail Rose Clarke reminds us that truly meaningful embodiment practice nurtures our relationships among self, nature, and community.<br/><br/>Combining the rigor of the scientific method with the poetry and lyricism of movement and somatic studies, Clarke's somatic learning system-The Embodied Life Method-centers the body as a guide through today's most seemingly intractable social and environmental challenges, reclaiming the body as a source of liberatory comfort in times of great uncertainty and yet, possibility. <br/><br/>With tools and practices to help us better understand and dismantle the many ways our bodies are weaponized to serve domination systems, topics covered include:<br/>• Harnessing the vitality of curiosity and experimentation<br/>• Using nature as a guide to possibility<br/>• Embracing the necessity of difference<br/>• Exposing the lie of universal isolation<br/>• Dismantling the fallacy of hierarchy<br/>• Uncovering the truth of endless capacity<br/>• Awe as a driving force for transformation<br/><br/>With methods honed over decades of inquiry, teaching, and practice, Returning Home to Our Bodies provides a lucid, body-based model of healing and restoration-one that imagines a world beyond systems of domination, marginalization, and isolation to nurture embodied, whole-community liberation.
