From the Back Cover
Jean Houston leads the viewer in a series of exercises to help activate the kinesthetic body - the body of muscular imagination. We learn ways in which we can inhabit our own bodies with more mindfulness and find the hidden possibilities that allow us to think more creatively. WE learn to engage our imagination, our memory and even learn how to do many things at the same time. Dr. Houston calls this "multitracking" - finding within ourselves a larger, deeper, more adventurous life and spirit. Jean Houston is widely known as one of the great explorers of the human potential. Mentored by Margaret Mead, she has reached her own human potential as philosopher, cultural historian and author of 15 books, including
The Possible Human, The Search for the Beloved and
A Mythic Life. Well nurtured by her father, a former comedy writer for Bob Hope, Dr. Houston also has been given the great gift of humor, which resonates throughout her work.
