Francis (Stretch Therapy) applies her training in yoga, pediatric therapy, exercise science, and tai chi to impart the wisdom found in her newest book. Surprisingly, she says, the body's muscles are communicators of emotions, and that by learning to listen to them, a person can maintain the highest state of wellness possible. Throughout the book, Francis offers affirmations, visualizations, meditations, stones, and essential oils that work with a particular muscle. Each chapter details a particular part of the body, and all exercises are paired with photographs, making it easy for the reader to perform. Glossaries of exercises and affirmations, along with different modalities and tools to try round out a comprehensive presentation. VERDICT Readers interested in holistic treatments and therapies will find this a solid resource. © Copyright 2017. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
