5.0 out of 5 stars Access the BodyMind dynamics of emotions, July 27, 2001

Jack Bresler (Tel Aviv, Israel) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Joy of Feeling: Bodymind Acupressure (Paperback)

This book expains how emotions -in the Western sense - reflect energetic balance/imbalance -in terms of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Five Element Theory and meridians. Innovative graphics illustrate the complex dynamics. Numerous clinical examples are provided, couched in the beautiful and mystical poetry of Chinese Medicine and Philosophy, against a background of clinical western psychology. An absolutely essential volume for anyone, not weaned on these metaphors, but interested in holistic treatment, at any level. Beatifully written, deserves to be read and re-read.

5.0 out of 5 stars The BodyMind Connection, March 13, 2006

C. Eland "Healing Touch" (Ohio River Valley) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Joy of Feeling: Bodymind Acupressure (Paperback)

Human understanding of the connection between emotion and physical health remains elusive in Western Medicine. This provocative Eastern view gives us hope that reintegration of our selves after traumatic moments and the transformation of "negative" feelings is literally at our finger tips.
This book is one of the deepest explorations into the energy of healing and remains a much worn friend in my healing library.
A must have book for healing touch practitioners from all traditions. A must read for all of us who hope to heal ourselves.

J. Rich "Raybob" (Southeast US) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Joy of Feeling: Bodymind Acupressure (Paperback)

This book is an excellent compendium of information that relates bodymind experience to acupressure theory, five-element theory, and traditional chinese medicine. Fantastic companion to Iona Marsaa Teeguarden's Complete Guide to Acupressure.
