"Religion has become sick. Jesus's teaching and healing ministries
point out this frightening and important truth. The worst enemies
of religion usually lie within religion itself. A subtle rigidity
takes over that blocks the flow of healing." -Chapter 7,
Transforming Body and SoulWith all the scholarly attention given to
the Scriptures in the Christian community, it is remarkable how
little study has been done of the Gospel healing stories. These
stories embody and reflect powerful interpersonal dynamics, which
are being rediscovered today in the practice of psychotherapy. As a
healer, Jesus forms a bridge between the most ancient of healers,
the shamans, and recent developments in psychosomatic medicine and
depth psychology. Body and soul are intimately connected-health in
one is often reflected in wholeness in the other.Blending the
insights of Biblical scholarship with those of modern psychology,
Galipeau examines each of the Gospel healing stories in depth.
Transforming Body and Soul is a valuable resource for
psychotherapists and counselors as well as clergy and pastoral
ministers. Anyone seeking health and wholeness of body and spirit
will find this a rewarding, challenging and therapeutic
book.Originally published by Paulist Press in 1990, Transforming
Body and Soul is a significant contribution to Jungian psychology
and to the relationship between psychological and spiritual
development.This Revised Edition includes an Index, Larger pages,
Larger font and a Foreword and Afterword by the author.Steven
Galipeau is a Jungian analyst in private practice in Calabasas,
California and President and Executive Director of Coldwater
Counseling Center in Studio City. A member of the C.G. Jung
Institute of Los Angeles, he teaches in the analyst training
