About this listen

Weaving together biology, living systems thinking, and somatic movement, these nine short essays will inspire somatic therapists, bodyworkers, and movement educators

Liz Koch, author of Core Awareness and The Psoas Book, seeks to dissolve the objectification of “body” in order to reconceptualize human beings as biologically intelligent, self-organizing, and self-healing. Specifically addressing educators and therapists, she delves into the conceptual framework of core by decolonizing the popular mechanistic thinking of psoas as muscle, inviting the listener on a journey toward reengaging with life’s creative processes. The book illuminates the limitations of the predominant paradigm of body and actively explores psoas as a vital, intelligent messenger that links us to an expansive network of profound possibilities. Employing biomorphic and embryonic paradigms, Koch redefines psoas as smart, expressive tissue that is both elemental and universal. Named after her popular exploratory workshops of the same name, Stalking Wild Psoas encourages all listeners to nourish integrity and claim self-efficacy as creative and expressive individuals.

Critic reviews

“Liz Koch opens the reader to a brilliant phenomenological panorama of the human body as a shaping, a process, a Gestaltung - as the expression of our soul, intelligence, and consciousness.” (Jaap van der Wal, MD, PhD, embryologist, anatomist, and (recovering) morphologist)

“This book inspires us to sensually, and with open interest, experience the bio-intelligence of our living being. Through her articulate and passionate voice, Liz Koch weaves together art, science, inquiry, exploration, deep care, and listening with the ways she is learning from within her own body, and with the bodies of her students and clients. What emerges is a textured narrative tapestry telling the story of our biological origins, biological intelligence, and our possibilities for the future if we participate by stalking the wild psoas.” (Mary Abrams, MA, RSME, somatic educator and founder of Moving Body Resources)

“Liz Koch captures the fundamental wholeness and innate intelligence of the body through her elegant prose in Stalking Wild Psoas. Her words convey a visual-sensorial experience, taking the reader on a journey of appreciation and discovery of the multi-dimensional fabric of being-in-body. Koch’s writing clearly delineates the essential differences between a biomechanical approach to understanding our physical nature and a holistic approach, touching the mystery and beauty of all that a body possesses.” (Carol A Agneessens, MS, biodynamic cranialsacral and Rolf educator and author of The Fabric of Wholeness: Biological Intelligence and Relational Gravity)
