BODY: Recovering Our Sensual Wisdom Ref: A914

Don Hanlon Johnson

This book is about healing fractures in our personal and social bodies that cripple our ability to take firm stands and move freely. It explores the ways in which societal pressures mold our bodies and our attitudes, and looks at the split between body and soul which is so much a part of modern culture. A tremendously thoughtful book - must reading for all bodyworkers who wish to understand where bodywork is coming from and where it may be going to.

CORE ENERGETICS: Developing the Capacity to Love & Heal Ref: B854

John C Pierrakos

"John Pierrakos's theme is the human Core, the blockages to Core feeling in the human body and psyche. As the co-founder of bio-energetics, Pierrakos spent more than 20 years developing energy-mobilisation methods to soften the muscular armour of the over-defended body... Core Energetics...deepens this psychosomatic work by drawing on his extensive knowledge of the human energy field (aura) and on group methods for increasing our contact to the inner essence in each of us... After reading this book...I felt renewed hope and commitment to the basic decency in each person which Core Energetics seeks first to recognise, then to liberate from our destructive manipulation..." David Boadella. "One finishes reading this book filled with wonder, and determined to accept the responsibility assigned by Pierrakos in order to transform oneself and one's world." Stanley Krippner. Recommended.
