Product Information

If it is true that you are what you eat, it may just as accurately be said that you are what you listen to. STEVEN HALPERN” Iemand zonder egokracht is bang voor wat anderen denken en geeft zijn authenticiteit, zijn eigen waarheid niet prijs. Om veilig de eigen persoonlijke waarheid te uiten moeten de lagere chakra's naar behoren functioneren. Deficiëntie: concentreren op dat levensgebied. Symptomen: terugtrekken, vaag, onbetrouwbaar, weinig spanning in lichaam. Vaak veroorzaakt door vermijding van jeugdtrauma. The elevation of psychic wholeness occurs only when energy previously invested in an external deity is withdrawn and returned to its source in the psyche Judith covers her base by being very clear about what Eastern Body, Western Mind has to offer. She very clearly states where she has taken the liberty to add on, such as for the example of adding sound, light and thought as "elements" to correspond with a given chakra.

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. If I had to describe this chakra guide with just one word, it would be “complete.” Once you own this chakra book, you won’t need to cross-reference any other. However, the higher chakras (where you start thinking about intuition, spirituality, intellectualisation) got too out there for me I’m afraid. I couldn’t buy into a lot of the stuff here and the stuff I could reason with consisted of truisms already well known... I am also not a fan of the ‘self-help’ genre and I found that these sections read a lot like this, whereas I would have preferred a more detached account (haha I suppose this indicates something about my higher chakras being overactive and out of touch with my emotions...). Persoonlijk visioen: naarmate we meer van onszelf waarnemen, kijken we dieper in mensen en situaties om ons heen. Door verruimend gezichtspunt, scheppen we onvermijdelijk een persoonlijk visioen; kan groots zijn (wereldvrede) of over persoonlijk leven (bijv je anders gedragen in bep situatie of tov bep persoon). Dit visioen is basis om onze werkelijkheid te scheppen; nieuwe kijk op dingen, als glas in lood raam waardoor licht op werkelijkheid schijnt. aEastern body, Western mind : |bpsychology and the chakra system as a path to the self / |cAnodea Judith.Onvoldoende in staat energie tot uitdrukking te brengen => we stagneren, worden een gesloten systeem Vergiffenis. Onszelf vergeven: begrijpen waarom we het deden en ons daarvan losmaken, goed maken met anderen. Anderen vergeven verzacht het hart. Macht in chakrasysteem gebaseerd op vereniging en synergie, niet op scheiding en strijd. Macht ontstaat niet door voorzichtig te blijven; wanneer we voor uitdagingen komen te staan, worden we sterker omdat we wel gedwongen worden te groeien. Natuurlijke uitdrukking van energie is activiteit.
