Eastern Body, Western Mind

“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.” -Yoga Journal”… [S]parkles with insight. Spiritual seeker, client, and therapist alike will find treasures here.”-PanGaia magazine
