Acerca de este título
Conscious Moving extends from one transformative belief: we feel more human, more empowered, and more ourselves when we live from that place within us—and all around us—that simply moves. And when we examine and trust in the emerging and evolving movement of our minds and bodies, we can better harness the tools needed to expand our creativity, wellbeing, and learning.
Body-based psychotherapist, movement specialist, and renowned author-educator Christine Caldwell (Oppression and the Body) offers a radically ambitious mode of somatic awareness and inquiry—and shows how designing our own conscious movement practices can improve not only our own lives, but our relationships, communities, and culture.
This anthology explores how movement practices can help us be more present; more grounded and intentional in responding to and working with experiences in the moment; and claim our own bodily autonomy. Caldwell and contributors explore these key benefits and applications in four critical areas:
- Creativity
- Contemplation
- Healing
- Learning
Rooted in both ancient and modern scientific ways of knowing, Conscious Moving imparts fundamental principles and tools applicable to a broad spectrum of fields and professions. Topics explored in partnership with conscious movement practice include: Trauma and Oppression, Isolation and Loneliness, Addiction, Group Therapy, Sexuality, Creative Arts, and Grief.
Encouraging each listener to pay attention to—and honor—their own embodied intuition, Conscious Moving is a non-prescriptive guide to accessing body-based wisdom for personal growth, community impact, and widespread social change.

©2024 Christine Caldwell (P)2024 North Atlantic BooksReseñas de la crítica
"Masterful.... the book makes [a] unique contribution of laying out the many ways that the reader can become more familiar with their labyrinthine pathways of movement.... An invaluable guidebook for enhancing our life journeys."—Don Hanlon Johnson, PhD, professor of somatics at CIIS and editor of Diverse Bodies, Diverse Practices
"A reference for all the therapists and teachers who use gestures in their approach. Christine Caldwell and her colleagues teach us a wide range of methods that can help individuals to improve how they understand and autoregulate themselves. This stimulating volume provides a detailed, clear description of practical methods and models forged during a lifetime of teaching in this domain. In it, Christine Caldwell helps us to find comfortable ways of consciously refining what connects the various dimensions of an organism, such as awareness, emotions, behavior, and somatic dynamics. Although what she describes is manifestly complex, the language remains perfectly clear."—Michel Heller, doctor in experimental psychology, honorary member of the European Association of Body Psychotherapy (EABP), and author of Postural Dynamics and Social Status and Body Psychotherapy
"Within Conscious Moving, Dr. Christine Caldwell brings together her passions for science, embodiment, social justice, and artistic expression. Like an intricate tapestry, she weaves in diverse concepts such as cellular biology, physics, mindfulness, and embodiment. As readers, we are invited to move through the book as an experiential journey that transcends the personal arc of transformation into interpersonal and systemic sites of change. In contrast to fast-paced modernity that reduces somatic psychology to a set of exercises found on TikTok, Christine invites us to slow down and savor the intricacies of the felt sense as a fundamental grounding that supports our relationships with self, other, and the world."—Dr. Arielle Schwartz, founder of Resilience Informed Therapy and author of The Complex PTSD Workbook, EMDR Therapy and Somatic Psychology, and The Post-Traumatic Growth Guidebook
