• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Healing is an inside job!

Consider this: If people received compassionate, therapeutic touch every day, could the anxiety and abuse that happens in the world be mitigated?

"The Art and Yoga of Touch: Another Path to Peace" explores the many benefits of mindful touch for our health and well-being and asserts that we can realize greater peace and calm through observing our inner world, as well as the intricacies of our breath, how we use both the forces of gravity and anti-gravity, and how we naturally move in patterns of waves and spirals.

Coming from the perspective that physical and emotional pain too often closes and tightens our bodies so that our movements become unnatural, "The Art and Yoga of Touch" includes detailed instructions for nine therapeutic SOMA Yoga exercises that have been designed to increase your somatic mindfulness, your ability to give and receive compassionate touch, and your overall sense of peace. The book also includes links to videos that feature the author, Dr. Paula, demonstrating each of these wonderful exercises.

Touch and movement awareness exercises move you into places where you can discover and explore realms beyond even what you thought could not be physically changed.

When we connect more deeply with our own body, and the bodies of others, with loving intention and attention, we experience and know that we belong in this world and we are not alone.

Exposed to a world of regular compassionate, loving touch how could anyone do harm?

Listen with love to your body's messages: healing is an inside job.

Autorenporträt

Dr. Paula Jeane received a message about 30 years ago that simply stated, "Teach touch." After starting a book by that name and going through several editions of putting together 30 years of research, articles, and points of interest about touch, she finally narrowed it down to one chapter, which became this little book. "This is really the core of what I want to share," she says.
Her background includes a Master's in Special Education, specializing in the visually impaired. She is also credentialed in learning disabilities and the severely handicapped. She has practiced yoga since the late 1960s, and began teaching yoga in 1980. She is also a Certified Massage Therapist. Dr. Paula has a Ph.D. in Psychology with a specialization in healing through movement and touch. She has spent decades teaching people of all ages and a diverse variety of learners. After moving to Denver for 11 years to follow her daughter and grandchildren, she is now back at her home in Joshua Tree, CA, doing her unique teaching and healing work.
She has studied with a variety of teachers: Process Work with Drs. Arny and Amy Mindell and colleagues for 25 years, Somatic Learning with Dr. Risa Kaparo for 11 years, and a great variety of other teachers and spiritual masters. Presently, her main spiritual teacher is Dr. David R. Hawkins. She says, "He sums up all I've learned throughout a lifetime of studying spiritual growth. He speaks directly to here and now. "
