The Body Awake

The Body Awake is a podcast for people interested in health and the human body, and in having a conversation beyond the body as merely a machine. It's about what we're made of, how we move, how illness, injury and healing happen, and what we can do with that information to live better lives.

Donna Martin came highly recommended to me from several Body Awake listeners. She's deeply trained, and trains others, in the realm of Hakomi, an approach to psychotherapy that's rooted in mindfulness and body awareness.

In this interview, Donna and I dive into what felt like, for me, the heart of connecting with another human being.

The first 23 seconds of the show gives you a taste of that.

Enjoy, and do keep your recommendations coming; thank you!
