Ecosomatics

“Reveals how somatic awareness is the way to rise above yet not avoid the challenges of our rapidly changing world. In simple but profound exercises and candid narratives, Cheryl shows readers, including those who may never have explored somatic intelligence, how to elicit that intelligence as a trustworthy guide. Ecosomatics brings you into your center, here and now, dependably in harmony with the natural world, and, best of all, with surprises born from connection and innate intuition.” * Stephanie Mines, Ph.D., author of The Secret of Resilience and founder of the TARA Approach *“An utterly fascinating read; by combining personal experiences and wide-ranging research, Pallant has crafted an engaging text on finding new ways of thinking, being, and connecting. It’s a muchneeded call to leave distractions behind and return to your body, for our own sake and the sake of the planet.” * Olivia Campbell, New York Times bestselling author of Women in White Coats *“With a sensitivity that sings forth, Cheryl Pallant delivers us poetry of the living body. She does this by investigating multiple facets of human nature and its interdependence with all living bodies, most notably the Earth. Dig into this inspiring book and its many pearls of bodily and emotional wisdom and opportunities for healing will unfold, centered in somatics and the ecology of how we choose to relate.” * Martha Eddy, CMA, RSMT, Ed.D, author of Mindful Movement and creator of Dynamic Embodiment™ *“Pallant’s engrossing writing skillfully guides the reader to recognize connections between our physical, energetic, and intuitive selves to awaken a multidimensional sensing that informs how we may choose to interact intentionally with all aspects of life and ‘a world in search of healing.’” * Gina Bondurant, BSN, RN, CHTP, CHTI, president of Healing Beyond Borders *“This passionately articulated book shows us that in turning within we are better able to turn toward this world that desperately needs our compassionate presence. Ecosomatics is a wonderful guide for everyone seeking to heal the split between the personal and the planetary.” * Kirk Warren Brown, Ph.D., faculty member in the Department of Psychology at Carnegie Mellon Universi *“Cheryl offers us a unique window into her world as an energy healer assisting people in becoming incorporated within their own earthy incarnation as a pathway to healing. Her ability to craft a sensual spell with words takes us on a rich journey through these varied perceptual layers of sensing, feeling, and understanding our place on and in the planet. She serves up many proverbial crumbs to find our way back home to a renewed wholeness.” * Jamie McHugh, MA, RSMT, creator of Somatic Expression® *
