Eastern Body Western Mind
| | | |
Anodea Judith's groundbreaking book on the chakra system places its esotericism firmly within the framework of Western thought. She draws from a number of sources, including psychology, somatic therapy, childhood developmental theory and metaphysics, to provide a truly compelling interpretation of the chakra system and its relevance to Westerners today.
There is a chapter devoted to each chakra, clearly explaining its specific characteristics and identity issues. Developing from this base, Anodea examines that chakra's particular developmental patterns, its traumas and abuses, and gives advice on how to keep it in balance.
Her fresh approach and unique blending of Eastern and Western thought helps clarify the spiritual nature of personality development, and its role within the body's structural logic. In Eastern Body Western Mind you will find a practical and elegant system to heal imbalances, enabling you to take control of both your mental and physical health.
Anodea Judith, Ph.D. is one of the country's foremost experts on the chakra system and its therapeutic use, and on the interpretation of the Chakra System for the Western lifestyle. She teaches across the U.S., Canada, Europe and Central America. Founder and director of Sacred Centers, Anodea is a groundbreaking thinker, writer, and spiritual teacher. Her passion for the realization of untapped human potential matches her concern for humanity's impending crises - her fervent wish is that we wake up in time.
