Finding Quiet Strength: Emotional intelligence, embodied awareness

by Judith Kleinman

Finding Quiet Strength is like packing a rucksack with your own, personal life-survival kit. The ideas in this book can help us to find quiet, flexible strength, that gives us a greater capacity to choose how we want to be in the world. If this intrigues you, then this book is for you. Finding Quiet Strength (FQS) is a practical philosophy that connects to both ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience. Judith’s work enables a calm, confident, and coordinated approach to life, helping us to be centred, grounded and develop a sense of poise and equilibrium. At some point, most of us need help with the challenges of life. FQS is the practice of being present in a way that develops our emotional intelligence and embodied awareness, enabling us to navigate the many ups and downs of being human. The work helps us to develop a deep and gentle self-acceptance and through this self-acceptance, FQS helps us work on an embodied resilience and become more aware of what we can let go of and what we can change. A core element of this work is inspired by F.M. Alexander’s principles of inhibition and direction, stopping, thinking and connecting.
