Cynthia Li has written a second book on healing from within that is just as profound and intimate as her first, Brave New Medicine. Any page I turned to offered me a gem of insight and instruction. I’ll turn to it again and again. — Anne Lamott, activist and NYT bestselling author of Bird by Bird

Optimize your body’s innate healing abilities...in a seemingly effortless way.
Are you one of the millions who suffer from chronic illness?
Have you tried everything—conventional or alternative—only to find that you still aren’t healing?
Do you struggle daily with anxiety, stress, or overwhelm?
In this highly anticipated follow-up to her acclaimed memoir Brave New Medicine, Dr. Li shows you how to cultivate embodied flow—an inner state of physiological coherence, harmony, and energy efficiency essential for optimal health. Drawing from modern science alongside time-tested methods for healing—such as the ancient Chinese movement practice of qigong—she reveals how coherence can activate your body’s peak healing state to help you thrive amid life's inevitable challenges, while also conserving your energy.
This book shows you how to support your physical and mental health while doing less, not more. As your body returns to a state of coherence, you’ll begin to feel the radical effects of embodied flow, and use this inner state to find lasting health and harmony.
