Editorial Reviews

Review

"The Heart of Listening, a welcome book to those of us teaching in this field that is so difficult to put into words, embodies the uniqueness of its author, who offers a rare combination of being a highly skilled healing practitioner and biomedical."
-Don Hanlon Johnson, Ph.D., Director of Somatics Program, California Institute of Integral Studies

"A wonder of a book. So many wisdoms and books within books. A book for all people."
-Betty Balcombe, Visionary Healer and Author of As I See It and The Energy Connection

"The Heart of Listening is an impeccable work that demonstrates the healing and teaching power found in the human physical structure. Milne provides profound psycho-spiritual insights and makes a significant contribution to physicians, health professionals, and individuals who seek ways to understand the unlimited resource of healing found within the human body."
-Angeles Arrien, Ph.D., Cultural Anthropologist and Author of The Four-Fold Way and Signs of Life


Product Description

Originally published as a single volume, The Heart of Listening has been re-issued as two separate volumes because of public demand for a more concise, portable edition. Milne, a third generation Scottish osteopath, begins by explaining the visionary approach to healing, and how it may be applied to the realm of craniosacral work. In the second volume, Milne details the anatomy, physiology, energetics, and techniques that are the essential core of visionary craniosacral work. His particular genius lies in his ability to weave a delicate tapestry of narrative, poetry, and scientific fact into a fascinating and insightful exposition of the visionary healing arts.

To facilitate clear analytic understanding of its component parts, the physical body is divided into the following divisions in craniosacral work: "the mechanism," the neurocranium (which comprises the cranial base and cranial vault), the viscerocranium, the stomatognathic system, and the speed reducers. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars definitive source for craniosacral work, February 13, 2001
By Elsah Cort (Three Rivers, CA United States) - See all my reviews
Milne's two-volume text is superb and comprehensive in scope. It describes, in detail, the anatomy, physiology, and energetics of the craniosacral system. Volume One offers Milne's visionary approach to the practice of craniosacral therapy, drawing from an intelligent, diverse collection of energy work, including the dreambody work of Arnold Mindell, Eastern meditative practices, Indigenous shamanic traditions, as well as the genius discoveries by William Garner Sutherland, the patriarch of craniosacral work, and many other organic sources. Volume Two is the most complete list of craniosacral techniques in print, giving clearly written descriptions for each technique, along with technically accurate photographs. The Heart of Listening is clearly the best text for practitioners who want to expand and deepen the healing process with their clients. Volume One is also a good tool for all bodyworkers and psychotherapists, not just craniosacral therapists. The only thing that surpasses this book is the curriculum provided by the Milne Institute itself, offering excellent classes, each of which is Visionary Craniosacral Work in action. Milne describes the work as "sculpting the conscious medium" and this book is a sculpted conscious work of art. It is a valuable book to read and digest again and again, over a long period of time, savoring its wisdom and depth of experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommend, January 9, 2007
Hugh Milne's 2 vol. set combines poetry, art, and technique in the field of Craniosacral Therapy. Great insight to the therapist's process, as well as, the client. It goes beyond the technical to the artful and creative process of being with your client, as you help their body heal itself. Not only beautiful, and inspiring, but deals, in detail, with the technical aspects of craniosacral work. It is a definite "must" in the library of the body worker who wants to go beyond the ordinary.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not the Definitive Text I wanted...
After reading Elsa Cort's reviews of this text, I was hoping this would be the "definitive text" for CranioSacral Therapy for me that it was for her. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars been there already
milne's work is good. if i didn't know of upledger's CST i'd love it.

instead, i'd recommend the source: upledger's craniosacral therapy.

that's where it's at.
