Thomas Hanna created the word “somatics” in 1976 to name the approaches to mind/body integration, and his new magazine, Somatics Magazine-Journal of the Mind/Body Arts and Sciences, which published its premier issue in Autumn 1977. Since its inception, the field of Somatics has grown by leaps and bounds, both in the number and variety of somatic disciplines, as well as the increased awareness and appreciation for working with the mind/body as a somatic whole by the general public.The web site for this material is at:http://www.somaticsed.comPlease keep this a elib exclusive, thanks.The group buy is open and at:: Ratio FreeElite/VIP: 3 weeksPower Users (PU): 7 weeksUsers: Upgrade to PU or contribute at:, Mazen
