About the Book
Read Integrating
Exercise, Sports, Movement, and Mind: Therapeutic Unity, and you’ll see
how exercise and movement are actually the keys to achieving a harmonious
equilibrium between thoughts and physical health. This unique collection
of writing, a healthy and diverse montage in its own right, mirrors its
topic, helping you see how a variegated array of body movements can lead
to a healthier, happier mind.
A kaleidoscope of theory and application, case study and abstraction,
Integrating Exercise, Sports, Movement, and Mind spans the spectrum of
relevant issues, including those revolving around gender, class,
ethnicity, and family systems, and accomplishes its task through the
medium of a wide assortment of activities, including gymnastics, soccer,
horseback riding, archery, running, walking, and cycling. Your perspective
on body movement and body-mind unity will be deepened as you read about
these topics:

 | contact Improvisation
 | the concept of “flow” from within a gendered consciousness
 | sport psychology and the coach/athlete/consultant triad
 | clinical sport psychology
 | sport trauma recovery |
| | | | | |
It’s a unique but universal relationship--this prism of thoughts and
physical locomotion. So open up Integrating Exercise, Sports,
Movement, and Mind and let some of the top experts in the field of
sport psychology open your mind and show you how to unlock the
body’s potential on the athletic field.
