Holding the Center by Richard Strozzi-Heckler

Holding the Center by Richard Strozzi-Heckler

As in all his books, Heckler draws from personal experience- training his horse, cultivating presence in aikido dojos, consulting with business executives, raising children. A masterful and encompassing book, Holding the Center develops from the fulcrum of the self in the natural world. Many of Heckler's lessons arise from his life as a householder and father. Community is a larger family-we make alliances to "take care of what matters to us." But, as Heckler teaches, that takes listening to others with an open heart, and learning what the needs of others are.The world can be a sanctuary, if we find a balance between instinct and choice. Richard Strozzi Heckler sounds an important call about the interplay between power and generosity in these subtle and luminous essays.

The Strozzi Institute, The Center for Leadership and Mastery, is led by Richard Strozzi-Heckler. He has a doctorate in psychology and a sixth-degree black belt in aikido. For the past thirty years, Dr. Strozzi-Heckler has taught embodied leadership and mastery principles to corporations, the government, the military, non-profit organizations, health care professionals, and educators. He is the editor of Aikido and the New Warrior and Keeping the Center, as well as the author of The Anatomy of Transformation and In Pursuit of the Warrior Spirit.
