Moving Mountain Institute exists in circularity

What we do in the clinic is informed by our dedication to learning and teaching in the classroom, and those insights circle back into our clinical work. What we offer in the classroom is informed by what we have seen effective in clinical settings with patients/clients. Our courses would not have value if they were not backed up by ongoing clinical insight. The circle extends to our course participants who then create the same circle with their clients and patients.

Mind Chimes | Books We’re Reading


Dispatches from Michael McMahon

We are not arrows shot in a straight line through time. The solar calendar demarcated a numerical year a while ago. It’s an arbitrary thing. Nature goes in cycles and the time of renewal is at the lunar new year, the dawn of spring if you will. We are still in our “wintering” time. Slow, underground, steeping.

But in deference to numbered years I want to share the books that I spent meaningful time with in 2024. I love checking out other folks’ curated book lists and wanted to share my own with y’all. 

My reading life is peripatetic. Books are often part of longstanding conversations I am having with ideas that matter to me in my own ellipses through life. I don’t read books to finish them or count how many books I have read in a year. That’s  not what reading is about for me, it’s much more part of an ongoing contemplative process. Some books that have impacted me most profoundly I have yet to finish. But, I reread chapters regularly. Some books I have finished and go back to still, years later. I often read in themes that emerge throughout a year - there is no possible way I could plan a reading year.
