Movement Matters: Essays on Movement Science, Movement Ecology, and the Nature of Movement

What if we can make ourselves, our communities, and our planet healthierâ€”all at the same timeâ€”by moving our bodies more?

Movement Matters is a collection of essays in which biomechanist Katy Bowman continues her groundbreaking investigation of the mechanics of our sedentary culture and the profound potential of human movement. Here she widens her â€œYou are how you moveâ€ message and invites us to consider our personal relationship with sedentarism, privilege, and nature. Bowman explores:

â€‹â€¢ how convenience often means less movement, not more time
â€¢ the missing â€œmovement nutrientsâ€ in our food
â€‹â€¢ how to include more nature in education
â€¢ the impact of adding movement to permaculture and ecological models
â€¢ our need for â€œvitamin Communityâ€ and group movement

Unapologetically direct, often hilarious, and always compassionate, Movement Matters demonstrates that human movement is powerful and important, and that living a movement-filled life is perhaps the most joyful and efficient way to transform your body, community, and world.
