Your Embodied Life - A Field Guide to Joy

Coming March 24th from Morgan James Publishing

Your Embodied Life arrived in my world exactly when I needed it most—not as another self-help book promising transformation, but as a gentle, wise friend offering practical tools for coming back to myself. King's writing feels like a conversation with someone who truly gets it, someone who has navigated her own journey back to joy and wants to light the path for others. What moved me most was how she honors where we are right now. There's no pressure to be anywhere other than exactly where you find yourself. The practices are simple enough to weave into a busy life, yet profound enough to create real shifts.Your Embodied Life is medicine for our disconnected times.”

"Discover Joy From the Inside Out

In Your Embodied Life: A Field Guide to Joy, Kelly King offers a deeply accessible, refreshingly honest guide to reconnecting with your body, your breath, and your purpose. Rooted in movement-based mindfulness and drawn from decades of real-world practice, this book invites you to explore your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being through simple, impactful and adaptable tools like meditation, journaling, dance, and daily rituals.

With warmth and clarity, King shares the Embodied Life framework—centered on curiosity, radical responsibility, and joy—as a practical path for anyone seeking to thrive, not just survive. Whether you're a seasoned mover or just starting to listen to your body again, this field guide helps you build sustainable life practices that ground, energize, and transform.
