If you were to look one place in the world to find a more embodied, playful, and grace-filled life, the InterPlay people would tell you to go straight to the source! Your own body!

What the Body Wants introduces readers step by step into InterPlay, a practice for creative and spiritual development that reintegrates the body into all aspects of life. Interplay, which is practiced throughout the world, is a philosophy and technique developed by Cynthia Winton-Henry and Phil Porter to foster health and transformation through community and creativity.

Read this book as inspiration or as a guide to the practice of InterPlay. Most exercises can be done alone or with a partner. However, InterPlay is at its best as a communal practice. Included with the book is the full-length InterPlay CD Like Breathing,* which will help re-awaken your body wisdom.

*The eBook download includes mp3 files of the InterPlay CD, Like Breathing.
