<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The renowned authority on yoga-based Eastern chakra has revised her groundbreaking work to this more accessible presentation that seamlessly integrates Western psychology and the Eastern chakra system. Includes a new Introduction by the author.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Revised edition of the groundbreaking New Age book that seamlessly merges Western psychology and science with spirituality, creating a compelling interpretation of the Eastern chakra system and its relevance for Westerners today.</b> <p/>In <i>Eastern Body, Western Mind</i>, chakra authority Anodea Judith brought a fresh approach to the yoga-based Eastern chakra system, adapting it to the Western framework of Jungian psychology, somatic therapy, childhood developmental theory, and metaphysics and applying the chakra system to important modern social realities and issues such as addiction, codependence, family dynamics, sexuality, and personal empowerment. <p/>Arranged schematically, the book uses the inherent structure of the chakra system as a map upon which to chart our Western understanding of individual development. Each chapter focuses on a single chakra, starting with a description of its characteristics and then exploring its particular childhood developmental patterns, traumas and abuses, and how to heal and maintain balance.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Rather than presenting an esoteric borrowing from Indian culture, Judith employs the metaphoric language of the chakra system within the context of modern psychology. Her clear organization and numerous charts make browsing for subjects of personal relevance a breeze, and her comparison of the various maps of psychological development (Freudian, Piagetian, Eriksonian, Reichian, and others) is intriguing. The book provides a useful tool for contemplating our strengths, weaknesses, and appropriate approaches to growth. <br><b>-<i>Yoga Journal</i></b> <p/>. . . [S]parkles with insight.
