About this audiobook
“All that we cherish—love, creativity, wisdom, and aliveness—becomes available when we are fully grounded in our bodies. Martin Aylward offers timeless practices that lead us home.”—Tara Brach
When we’re overwhelmed by desires and distractions, we’re easily disconnected from ourselves. Life is happening right in front of us, and within us—but still, we manage to miss so much of it.
The practices in this “guidebook to awareness of the body” (Sharon Salzberg) literally bring us back into our skin, where we can reconnect with a more rich, meaningful, and peaceful life. More than a meditation manual, this book is a guide to living an embodied life. You’ll learn about the following areas and practices:
- How to inhabit our sensory experience carefully
- The art of living from the inside out.
- How to understand and liberate our primal human drives.
- Ways to integrate psychological understanding with meditative practice.
- How to investigate the nuances of love
In the process, practitioners find ease, clarity, and an authentic, unshakeable freedom.
“Martin is a marvelous teacher and offers us the refreshing wisdom of an embodied life.”—Jack Kornfield
