There are qualities we all yearn to experience in our lives—peace, simplicity, grace, connection, clarity. Yet these qualities evade us because each of them arises from an experience of wholeness, and we live in a culture that enforces divisions within each of us. In Radical Wholeness, Philip Shepherd shows the countless ways in which we are persuaded to separate from the body and live in the head. Disconnected from the body’s intelligence, we also disconnect from the wholeness of the present. This schism within us is the primary source of stress not just in our personal lives, but for the systems of the planet. Drawing from neuroscience, anthropology, physics, the arts, myth, personal stories and his experiences helping people around the world to experience wholeness, Philip Shepherd illuminates what true wholeness means and offers practices designed to help readers soften into the intelligence of the body. Radical Wholeness is a call to action: to recover wholeness and experience a new way of being.
In the tradition of Quantum Healing and Guns, Germs and Steel, Philip Shepherd's New Self, New World makes an intellectual inquiry into how we might restore freedom, creativity, and a sense of presence in the moment by rejecting several fundamental myths about being human New Self, New World challenges the primary story of what it means to be human, the random and materialistic lifestyle that author Philip Shepherd calls our “shattered reality.” This reality encourages us to live in our heads, self-absorbed in our own anxieties. Drawing on diverse sources and inspiration, New Self, New World reveals that our state of head-consciousness falsely teaches us to see the body as something we p...

This book shows you how--in just 30 minutes a day, once or twice a week--using the science-backed MSTF method. The mixed messages we’ve received about exercise, aerobics, and mental and physical fitness are all misleading...or at least incomplete.

Deep Fitness introduces a proven, new approach to building strength and whole-body health: Mindful St...

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The most obvious impediment to my taking the path less traveled was money. I didn’t have any to speak of, but I was equipped with the reasoning ability of an 18-year-old, which suggested that if I could get to London and buy a bicycle, I would eventually arrive in Japan. #2 The instructions of the Story aren’t reasonable. They aren’t accountable. They are largely hidden. And they often have nothing to do with the truth of the world. Yet, they still feel right to us. #3 I cycled across Europe, and when I returned home, I felt like everything was different. I had the greatest gift of all: the ability to see the strands of the web that had bound me. I began to question them. #4 I had a difficult time adjusting to the life I had in America after my bike trip. I wanted to understand the nature of the Story of my culture, and acquire freedom of choice in the matter. I began questioning gravity without ever experiencing anything else.
