Tens of thousands of men worldwide have been impacted by the ground-breaking book The Masculine in Relationship. It presented the Masculine Blueprint, a three-part framework that supports men in building their own Masculine core.Now acclaimed author GS Youngblood turns his attention to one of the most important tools men can use on this journey: embodiment practice. This book is the handbook to his popular online companion course, The Art of Embodiment.For men who are looking to become more grounded and powerful in both love and work, this book makes a very bold statement to you:A daily embodiment practice will change your life.It is the number one thing that men can do to build their Masculine core. The practices are designed to ground and settle you at the nervous system level, where trauma and anxiety reside. When this happens, your reactivity - in the form of defensiveness, withdrawal, hiding, and blame - begins to subside. You are freed up to live life as a more powerful, relational man. One whose relationship has more loving, more sexuality, and more respect, with less fighting, criticism, and angst.Embodiment is a field of practice that incorporates elements of meditation, movement, visualization, breathing, and intensity. It is different than meditation because, rather than learning to use the conscious mind to let go of thoughts, practitioners focus almost exclusively on physical sensation in the body. In that state, thoughts are naturally crowded out, without even trying to let go of anything. It takes diligent practice, but with the right guidance and dedication, its benefits can be yours.
