“Holistic, philosophical, and deliciously interoceptive.” —Tom Myers, author of Anatomy Trains
Liz Koch, author of Core Awareness and The Psoas Book, seeks to dissolve the objectification of “body” in order to reconceptualize human beings as biologically intelligent, self-organizing, and self-healing. Specifically addressing educators and therapists, she delves into the conceptual framework of core by decolonizing the popular mechanistic thinking of psoas as muscle—inviting the reader on a journey toward reengaging with life’s creative processes.
Koch illuminates the limitations of the predominant paradigm of body and actively explores psoas as a vital, intelligent messenger that links us to an expansive network of profound possibilities. Employing biomorphic and embryonic paradigms, Koch redefines psoas as smart, expressive tissue that is both elemental and universal.
Liz Koch is one of the cutting-edge somatic practitioners and bodyworkers who see the body as a living process with innate healing abilities rather than an object to be improved or repaired. Named after her popular exploratory workshops of the same name, Stalking Wild Psoas encourages all readers to nourish integrity and claim self-efficacy as creative and expressive individuals.
