- 1) George Leonard - Consciousness and the martial arts. George Leonard, an Aikido instructor and one of the founders of the consciousness movement, describes the ways in which martial artists cultivate awareness of their own subtle physiological rhythms and those of others. 2) Michael Murphy - Transforming the human body. Founder of the Esalen Institute and author of The Psychic side of sports and Golf in the kingdom, Murphy describes how you may consciously control your physical evolution through religious and aesthetic disciplines, biofeedback and medicine. 3) Stanley Keleman - Spirit and soma. The human organism and the biosphere are part of one system says Stanley Keleman, a pioneer of psychotherapy from a somatic perspective. He discusses the unity of spirit and soma (or body) in the life process. 4) Eleanor Criswell - The Mind-body connection.
