In this essential guidebook, Will Johnson shows how meditation, too often misunderstood as a mental practice, can be immeasurably enriched through an embodied approach. The Posture of Meditation features a range of simple practices based on the principles of alignment, relaxation, and resilience. This classic book--now with a new section detailing the transformative power of the path of somatic meditation--has helped thousands of people to begin their meditation practice, to refine it, and to experience depths they never thought possible.
