About this deal

This book made all the western psychology I've read over the years make sense. The author describes the development of the chakras with reference to traditional western theories of psychological development. The result is that it puts the psychology in the BODY, and illuminates the reasons why the asana practice can be so emotional and psychologically liberating. Omhoog: aantrekking van verstand en geest, richting vrijheid, abstractie en universaliteit. Bevrijding van materie naar bewustzijn. The book's deep structure suggests that she has not. I don't know how much "eastern body" is really here at all. New Age and Human Potential movement ideology is not Eastern. It's Californian.

While not technically a chakra book, I listed this one here because crystals and chakra healing go hand in hand.

Success!

Emoties zijn spiritueel, taal van de ziel. Taal die met het lichaam wordt gesproken. Zintuigen leveren ruwe informatie, gevoelens zijn de onbewuste reacties op deze informatie, emoties gestructureerde gevoelens in ons lichaam waar we ons bewust van kunnen worden. We kunnen kiezen hoe we op emoties reageren, maar emoties zelf zijn niet te beïnvloeden. Emoties gaat vaak gepaard met bewegen: slaan schoppen trillen ijsberen snikken, of juiste anti: verkrampen van spieren, stokken ademhaling. Andersom werkt ook: door yoga kunnen emoties vrijkomen.

Excellent book. Very insightful into the many facets of human behavior and psychology and spirituality. In fact the integrative nature of the book and its explanations is often what makes it so intriguing and insightful.I love ‘warm’ (chakra) books like this one because it takes away some of the uncomfortableness of learning a new subject. Shameful people retreat to their heads and doubt their instincts. They put negative thoughts in a loop and believe they are more real than what their heart says because they believe their heart is not a reliable barometer. My friend who’s psychologist told me this is the only book I need to read, and now I’m worried I have a sixth chakra deficiency. 😰 Taak derde chakra: bereiken autonomie. Essentieel voor persoonlijke verantwoordelijkheid. Gebrek autonomie: anderen de schuld geven, jammeren. Het ego ontwaakt in dit chakra, de wil. Uniek durven zijn, de integriteit van je eigen waarheid het risico van afkeuring laten lopen. Veel mensen wekken dit chakra niet, volgen erg minste weerstand en verwachtingen van anderen (=macht bij anderen).
