The Secret Society of the Body by Bill Palmer will be available from 18 August.
In this new book, Bill Palmer explores a different way of understanding the body. Drawing on decades of work with Movement Shiatsu and Inner Qigong, he shows how movement, touch, development and awareness reveal an intelligence that is not confined to the brain. Rather than seeing the body as something to control or fix, he invites us to understand it as a living system that listens, adapts, remembers and seeks balance.
Combining essays, developmental theory, case studies and practical explorations, The Secret Society of the Body offers a fresh perspective on Qi, meridians and bodywork, building bridges between East Asian medicine and contemporary science.
Bill Palmer is Director of the School for Experiential Education (SEED) in the UK and has been teaching and developing Movement Shiatsu and Inner Qigong internationally for over four decades.
Available from 18 August.
