Relearning the Body (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798899904851)

Relearning the Body is Not for the Weak

Aging, as they say, is not for the weak, but sometimes it is a force to be reckoned with. What happens when the body you have always known starts challenging you and you must negotiate with your feet, your memories, your whole physical self? In Relearning the Body, we follow the speaker through the changes and challenges of learning and relearning an ever-evolving physical and emotional Self. By inviting the body and the mind into conversations about issues of aging, family, and the Self, the speaker in Relearning the Body shows us that acceptance, while hard, is grace.
