Heart open, body awake : four steps to embodied spirituality
(Book)

Includes bibliographical references (pages [205]-206).

"What would it mean to feel your heart-both the emotions and intuitions that run through it as well as the sensations and physicality of the organ itself? It is possible to know our hearts with such fullness-and going further, it is possible to experience each organ and bodily system with this level of holistic awareness and care. And when we do, whichever religious or spiritual tradition we practice begins to seem more readily available-as close as our sensitive, beating hearts. In Heart Open, Body Awake, Susan Aposhyan weaves together insights from a range of scientific, psychological, and spiritual traditions to present a practical path toward embodied spirituality. Structured through four parts-Heart of Humanity, Body of Life, Deepening into the Body, and Blossoming-the book is astonishingly rich with useful facts, illustrative anecdotes, and practical exercises"--,Provided by publisher.
