Knowledge derived from direct experiences of
breathing, sensing, moving, and touching is
traditionally held to have no authoritative moral or
intellectual significance. Such an approach devalues
embodied human experience and narrows the field of
rationality. This book challenges that traditional
view, arguing that it at the root of many of the
crises that we face today. It takes as a starting
point an experiential breath awareness practice
based on sensing subtle bodily movements that occur
with breath as it is allowed to come and go on its
own. While describing this minute awareness practice
the book evokes the relation of that activity to
larger issues posed by social thinkers,
psychologists, and cross-cultural theorists. It
provides what Don Hanlon Johnson describes as an
engaging and brilliant analysis a seamless blend
of experiential practice with profound intellectual
analysis , invaluable for anyone concerned with
embodiment, whether in somatic practice, health,
sport, performance, or other fields of human
endeavour.
