Description
BODYMIND
An established classic in its field, Ken Dychtwald’s Bodymind
has been updated in this latest edition to reflect the author’s on-
going exploration of the vital body and mind connection. Integrat-
ing ancient Eastern knowledge with the pioneering contemporary
work of Wilheim Reich, Moshe Feldenkrais, Fritz Perls, and with his
own intuitive observations, Dychtwald presents a comprehensive
study on the body and mind relationship in an analytic yet highly
readable style.
Through Dychtwald’s engaging, experiential narrative, the reader
is drawn into an illuminating journey toward higher self-awareness
with practical applications in everyday life. Articulating the com-
plex relationship between body type, personality, and experience,
Dychtwald suggests methods for obtaining deeper self-knowledge
of physical, emotional, and sexual makeup, and relates techniques
for releasing repressed feelings, as well as self-healing and
increased energy.
” … extremely well illustrated, not only by drawings and diagrams,
but by numerous examples, often taken from the author’s own ex-
perience. It is rare to find a book in which factual material comes
vividly alive, and the author emerges so fully as a person.”
–Yoga Journal
“Dychtwald manages to avoid the ‘right way’ arrogance often
inherent in books that talk about self-improvement. Rather, we are
left with a sense of fascination for an increasingly relevant topic
that is bound to make body readers out of all of us:.” –New Age
