Bodywork meets mindfulness in Stack Your Bones, comprised of 100 movement lessons and visualisations. Longtime bodywork clinician and innovative movement teacher Ruthie Fraser developed these secular `sutras’ to acquaint us with the basics of how we move – essential for anyone who lives in a body. A minimalist, evocative illustration accompanies each of these thoughtfully articulated exercises (Strength Is Balance, Buoyant Shoulders, Legs as Columns, Order Creates Freedom).

Grounded in the Structural Integration principles of Dr. Ida Rolf (1896–1979), Stack Your Bones is complementary to yoga, dance, acting, running, golf, martial arts – physical activity of every sort. Readers will reap the benefits of heightened body awareness, improved core strength, and enhanced movement mechanics.

Reviews for Stack Your Bones

-Ruthie is masterfully articulate, fluent in the language of the body. I am more limber and pain-free because of her.---Adrian Grenier, actor, producer, director, musician -The lessons in this book invite you to observe and play with physical habits and mental assumptions about your body that you may have developed over a lifetime. This book is a treasure trove of useful and enjoyable ways to improve your body awareness--to move from seeing your body as a source of worry and frustration, to relying on your body as a reservoir of strength and pleasure.---Ellen Saltonstall, yoga teacher and author of Anatomy and Yoga
