Inhaltsangabe

You wouldn’t expect a book about being present in the moment and breathing to be riveting, but this one is!
Susan Moon, Zen teacher, Author of Alive Until You’re Dead
-------------
Return to Our Senses offers a life-changing invitation to come home to what is most reliable and intimate: our direct, embodied experience. In a time marked by turbulence, speed, and chronic uncertainty this book presents the somatic, mindfulness practice of Sensory Awareness as a practical and deeply humane antidote to disconnection and overwhelm.
Drawing on over fifty years of teaching, Lee Klinger Lesser weaves together inspiring stories, simple yet profound practices, and clear guidance for cultivating presence in daily life. Readers are invited to explore how living more fully in their own bodies transforms the way they meet stress, conflict, and grief, and open to creativity, change, and possibility.
At its heart, Return to Our Senses is an act of love for life. It calls us to respond, rather than react, to the conditions we find ourselves in, to bring forward our unique gifts with care, courage, and compassion, and contribute to a more humane and resilient future for generations to come.
--------------
Lee is a warm and wise guide through the sorrows and the joys, the depths and the heights, of this precious life.
Rick Hanson, PhD, author of Buddha’s Brain, Resilient,
and Hardwiring Happiness

At this time of chaos in the world, Return to Our Senses is a godsend, a
moving and inspiring guide. With clarity, compassion and love, Lee has
written a book that can help us live a more conscious, peaceful and constructive
life.
David Sheff, New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Boy, and Buddhist on Death Row

Reading Return to Our Senses felt like someone gently putting a hand on my shoulder and saying, “Slow down… you’re here.” Lee’s writing is deeply human and it felt like she was speaking to me personally! A beautiful read from a wonderful person!
Jon Macaskill, Retired Navy SEAL Commander, Mindfulness Teacher
