For the past 20 years,

Somatics magazine has provided a meeting ground for those who practice mind-body unification in their work and everyday lives. Since 1976, when Thomas Hanna founded the magazine, the field of somatics has grown enormously. The wisdom of the mind-body disciplines has become increasingly recognized and accepted in mainstream culture.

What is unique about Somatics magazine?

Somatics presents the mind-body disciplines in an integrated way, looking at all areas of human life in an environmental context. Its articles mix the scientific with the enjoyable, and its information is as personally important as it is internationally significant.
