Sunday Pick: The meaning of embodiment w/ Prentis Hemphill | How to Be a Better Human

Each Sunday, TED shares an episode of another podcast we think you'll love, handpicked for you… by us. Our bodies and minds are deeply intertwined, yet we often overlook this vital connection in our daily lives. In this episode of How to Be a Better Human from the TED Audio Collective, host Chris Duffy welcomes therapist, somatics teacher, author, and founder of The Embodiment Institute, Prentis Hemphill. Prentis shares what it means to be fully present in your body -- and explains how cultivating a sense of embodiment can enhance your self-understanding, and your relationship with the world.


For more How to Be a Better Human, listen wherever you get your podcasts.
