Abstract
This chapter sets the scene for this edited book. Collectively we are presented with a gathering of thinkers and practitioners all working with unique understandings of the body, embodiment and transformative futures. Yet together we get a sense of unity around the insight that when we engage in expansive, disruptive, healing and anticipatory work that includes, even demands, that the body is an active ingredient in generating and opening to Grace we encounter new possibilities and strategies for rethinking the future.
