BROOKLYN, NY, UNITED STATES, October 10, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The NYC Big Book Award recognized "How You Think and Feel Changes Your Body: Dynamic Body Psychology" by Douglas Peterson as the 2024 category winner in Psychology.

The competition is judged by experts from different aspects of the book industry, including publishers, writers, editors, designers, booksellers, librarians and professional copywriters. Winners and distinguished favorites are based on overall excellence.

"How You Think and Feel Changes Your Body: Dynamic Body Psychology"

The psychology of the body provides profound insight into behavior, yet most people greatly overlook it.

Your life will change when you realize that how you think and feel transforms your body tissue. Body Psychology brings to life, through descriptions and illustrations, the psychological and physical issues written on our bodies and how our thinking/feeling can change the body both immediately (such as with depression) and over time (such as when one develops a hunched back from long-held feelings and thoughts that the world is overwhelming).

Have you ever wanted to recognize the signs of deeply ingrained issues in yourself and others? What a great tool when considering who to choose for a date or a business partner. You can learn how to spot trauma, depression, and other repetitive problems.
