“Body Intelligence could be subtitled: A User’s Manual for Surviving and Thriving on Planet Earth. Cardillo not only explains how we can manage and regulate our own personal energy but how we can use it to deal with life’s nuances. Drawing from science, quantum physics, ancient traditions and teachings as well as traditional Western and Eastern medicine, Cardillo makes a compelling case for a holistic approach to—well, everything, stating that you can work with and regulate your daily energies to increase the brilliance of all you do. Everyone who wants brilliance should read this book.”

– Irene Conlan, MSN, PhD, creator of The Self Improvement blog and The Self Improvement radio show

“Joseph Cardillo’s Body Intelligence is the right book for our time exploring the new frontiers integrating the technologies of Western science with the new mind-body medicine that teaches us how to synchronize mind, body and spirit in daily practice.”

– Ernest Rossi, PhD, and Kathryn Rossi, PhD, authors of Creating New Consciousness in Everyday Life

“Loaded with fascinating science and technology, Body Intelligence is a compelling, life changing approach to acquiring and maintaining your best physical and mental energy. Cardillo’s remarkable theory is a serious breakthrough in tapping the body-mind connection and is a must read for anyone wanting to live life at their full potential. You’ll never think about human energy the same again.”

"Cardillo (Be like Water) tackles the mind/body connection with a book intended to help readers achieve a “vivid, brilliantly experienced life” by identifying and using the body’s energy sources. After discussing how energy affects one’s overall life, he segues into teaching readers how to identify their energy needs, sharing valuable insights and exercises for boosting alertness, personal strength, and memory, and reversing stress, aggressive feelings, and obsessive thinking. Mindfulness is at the heart of every chapter, as Cardillo identifies the power of emotional memory and explains how implicit memory combines with the flight-or-flight response without conscious effort. “Implicit memory can be dangerous when combined with a negative mood and rapid changes in your blood chemistry,” he warns. Cardillo gives readers reliable tools for addressing tough situations, including emptying one’s mind to eliminate stress, combining the energy of music and art with positive memories to improve one’s mood, and using what he terms power words to enhance memory and view stressful situations from a detached perspective. He also emphasizes that this isn’t a one-size-fits-all proposition; what works for one person might not for another. Written with an empowering and empathetic tone, Cardillo’s latest work is likely to join his earlier Be like Water on lists of mind/body classics."
