She offers a new way forward - part of a leading edge science of somatic transformation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe unique angle of this book, aside from challenging the myths of traditional therapy and Western patriarchy, is the connection to evolution. Our bodies evolved to be soft-hearted creatures that lean on each other for survival. Women, in particular, developed keen ways of sensing danger, detecting changes in the environment, and shifts in relationships that kept tribes alive for millions of years. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYet today, however, these ways of knowing are often pathologized and misunderstood. \"Too sensitive.\" \"Overreacting\". We are taught to calm down, settle down, quiet down. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWise Bones invites the reader to reconnect with the grounded wisdom and aliveness moving through the body-and to remember what the modern world taught us to forget.
