Wendy Palmer – författare

The Intuitive Body draws on the principles of the non-aggressive Japanese martial art aikido and meditation to present a fresh approach to cultivating awareness, attention, and self-acceptance. Author Wendy Palmer shows readers through basic practice and partner exercises how to become more aware of the body and trust its innate wisdom. She introduces exercises from the Conscious Embodiment and Intuition Training program she pioneered, connection movement, meditation, and breathing. These exercises form a daily practice that can help the process of integration, of deepening and unifying the self, and learning to deal with fear and anger. Written in a direct yet nurturing style and based on the author’s many years of practice and teaching, this revised edition of The Intuitive Body contains new material on Conscious Embodiment movement and meditation practices. Also here are new chapters on advocating without aggressing and the wisdom of not knowing—embodying the qualities of dignity and integrity in everyday life. The book is ideal for readers who are already engaged in the process of becoming, as well as for those who are looking for ways to find the courage to begin.

Tasked with the care of Liza, a young girl who must be protected from her own father, journalist Gabe Ward seizes on the opportunity to exchange London for the isolated Northamptonshire estate of a minor baronet.He doesn't expect to come face to face with a man he spent a pleasant evening with at the Rogue and Vagabond eight months ago. A man who seemed to have a good time then…and who is none too thrilled to encounter Gabe again in the middle of an extended family gathering.It's not exactly an unalloyed delight for Gabe, either, no matter how tempting he finds the prickly Highlander. Between watching over Liza, biting his very opinionated tongue amongst his gentry hosts, and wondering what on earth is scuttling through the undergrowth in Lamport Hall's gardens, he barely has a spare moment for Tor MacLeod's hot-and-cold flirtations.Well, you can always find a spare moment or two, can't you?As Gabe and Tor inch ever closer to an understanding, dangers both mundane and supernatural draw closer, too, threatening their chance of a future together – and Liza's safety. The bickering pair must learn to trust each other before it's too late for them, and too late for Liza.But is putting his faith in a Scottish toff one bridge too far for an argisome workhouse bastard?
