Review

`[The author] has taken systematic care to introduce relevant electrical, physiologic, and psychological concepts in operational language for the widest possible professional audience....Any clinician not thoroughly experienced in respiratory psychophysiology will leave these pages with profound new insight and direction.'
From the foreword by Charles F. Stroebel, Institute for Advanced Studies in Behavioral Medicine, Connecticut

5.0 out of 5 stars yes, breathing and psychology are related, August 7, 2001

This review is from: The Psychology and Physiology of Breathing: In Behavioral Medicine, Clinical Psychology and Psychiatry (The Springer Series in Behavioral Psychophysiology and Medicine) (Hardcover)
It is a great book. I studied with Dr Fried at San Francisco in 1988 and every comment he made was supported by adecuate and precisely background and many published papers. I may say if Dr. Fried did not mentioned in the book it is because it does not exist or nobody has ever writen abouth it. The book is full of facts, references, advises and a great dry sens of humor. It signals medical mistakes, contradictions in findings reported, circular arguments; and clarifies all the points in relation to breathing, phisiological changes and how they transform in psychological proceses and "mental disease". Yes types of migraine can be cured, high blood pressure, and a lot more. I was at a academic panel at the School of Psychology of the State University to review a training in breathing, yoga, and relaxation for the treatment of anxiety, and I look good by all the references I had on the relation between breathing and anxiety. A great book for any profesional on biofeedback, psychoterapy, medical general practitioner, and Psychiatrists.

This review is from: The Psychology and Physiology of Breathing: In Behavioral Medicine, Clinical Psychology and Psychiatry (The Springer Series in Behavioral Psychophysiology and Medicine) (Hardcover)
As a Myofascial Therapist and a Yoga practitioner, I found the content to be detailed but not overwhelming. Excellent resource for those who need to delve deeper into the physiology and psychology of breathing. Well documented, great reference.
