Brightly soulful and deeply rooted, The Body Oracle Deck is a somatic invitation to awe and wonder, a homecoming to nature and the body, and an antidote to despair. Includes 80 lushly illustrated cards with original collage art, body-based exercises, and an accompanying guidebook Written by Abigail Rose Clarke (Returning Home to Our Bodies) and illustrated by Amy Salomone, this deck opens our awareness to a profound and powerful truth: our bodies are miracles. Created to help you connect to the innate and beautiful wisdom of your body--and to the living world to which we each belong--The Body Oracle Deck is an invitation into embodied resistance against disembodiment and cynicism. It helps us awaken to ourselves and our senses so we can awaken to the world--and stay present and engaged even through heartbreak and hopelessness. Structured in four sections, Clarke guides us through four dimensions of embodied knowing:
Muscle and blood, belly and bone, our bodies move and connect more like ecosystems than machines. This deck offers a path home to this truth--and a conduit to the precious, singular experiences and sensations that make up what it means to be vital, embodied, and fully alive.
- "Awe" tiny stories of our beginnings--as stardust, as kin--that open us to a greater sense of wonder
- "Curiosity" meditations on safety, change, intuition, and belief--that are meant to change and evolve as you do
- "Possibilities" breath, movement, and imaginative engagement with your body
- "Oracle" the body's wisdom on vitality, reciprocity, and integration
