Moving Between Worlds

Human life depends on communication, and as much as 90 percent of it happens without words, yet few people pay close attention to the body's role in how meaning passes between us. This is the fourth book in a series by Andrea Olsen, an educator whose work spans several disciplines and centers on embodiment.

The thirty-one chapters move between inner experience and outer expression, and between the self, other people, and the Earth. Each one blends background facts, the author's personal stories, and guided somatic movement practices, so readers can explore the material through several learning styles and ways of seeing. The aim is to deepen one's relationship with oneself and others, sharpen communication skills, and find balance in a world that includes far more than people.

The book is intended for anyone who wants practical tools for living and speaking with more ease and clarity.
