The Science of Movement, Exercise, and Mental Health

This book provides both the scientific underpinnings of the link between movement and mental health, and practical advice to help individuals achieve their goals. Inspired by the author's 17 years' experience in movement therapy, it is professionally focussed and broadly applicable across a range of different disciplines.

Jennifer Pilotti''s latest book explores the science at the intersection of movement and mental health. It encourages readers to consider in greater detail the way exercise impacts the nervous system, and how it influences the ability to sense, feel and perceive the internal and external world.

Based on the author''s extensive experience in both researching and teaching movement therapies, the book is designed to be accessible to practitioners and professionals across a range of disciplines. From Yoga and Tai Chi to dance teaching and personal training, the coaching guidance provided can also help therapists of all kinds think about the use of language, potential roadblocks and exercise interventions and programming in new ways.

By examining key topics including aerobic exercise, resistance training and restorative movement, this book is a valuable resource for all kinds of practitioners looking for inventive ways to help their clients achieve physical and emotional balance.
