"Conscious Breathing" presents contemporary Breathwork methods in a
comprehensive, structured way for modern readers. Emphasizing the
practice as a way to access the most elevated states of
consciousness and the deepest states of meditation, author Joy
Manne shows how Breathwork can be applied to transpersonal,
existential, past life, chakra, Kundalini, shamanic, and other
experiences. Using detailed examples, case histories, and
exercises, "Conscious Breathing" covers basic grounding and
awareness, advanced breath and body-centered explorations, and
explorations of biblical and religious teachings.
Mapping out a "family constellation," explains Dr. Joy Manne,
encompasses exploring previous powerful life events from accidents
to adoptions and accessing the deepest dynamics in that family
system. This process helps us recognize and then resolve deeply
seated family patterns. For example, in order to understand a
person's inability to trust, the family history of betrayal must be
uncovered and released. These insights replace resentment with
respect, pain with understanding.
Dr. Manne uses the knowledge gained from her own practice as well
as her educational experiences with Bert Hellinger, the founder of
Family Constellations therapy, to clearly describe this technique.
Most family constellation sessions are carried out in a group
setting, with the facilitator first seeking clarity regarding the
issue or problem the client has come to work out. Representatives
are then chosen from among the group and the constellation is set
up and worked in until it comes to resolution. This may be followed
by a closing ritual and advice about how to integrate what the
constellation has revealed. Through the use of real-life examples
of family constellations, Dr. Manne makes this increasingly popular
practice understandable and relatable.
Usually our personality is a confusion of contradictory
impulses. We both want something and we don't want it. We love and
we hate the same person. We despair of ever understanding
ourselves.
The solution is to become literate about our personality. Hal
and Sidra Stone developed the Voice Dialogue technique that enables
us to interview the different parts of our personality as if they
were individual people. Through it we learn to understand their
conflicts and we submit their desires to the overall control of our
Aware Ego. Awareness is always the solution to life's
challenges.
This is the first Do-It-Yourself Voice Dialogue manual.
The Buddha didn't only teach ideas, he taught a method through
which we may obtain Enlightenment and invited people to come and
try his method. The Pali Canon, the literature of Theravada
Buddhism which is practiced in Sri Lanka, Thailand and Burma,
contains many exercises that go back to the Buddha himself. This
book is an introduction the the teaching of the Buddha and in these
early texts of the practise they recommend. In it, exercises that
go back to the Buddha himself become accessible to everyone.
"Once upon a time..."
Magical words that herald the promise of a story - a fairytale,
a myth, a legend, or a family story. We make sense of our existence
from the stories we've listened to, watched on film, or chosen to
read, but no story has greater impact on the soul than our family's
'story'. In this jewel of a book, you are in the hands of a
masterful storyteller.
Joy Manne reminds us that we tell stories because we live in
stories.
"-Philippa Lubbock"
This book is based on research based on the original texts of the
Pali Canon, the shamanic literature, and Jungian psychology. It
shows that there is a common pattern in the development of a shaman
and that the Buddha's development follows this pattern. It argues
that consciousness is naturally shamanic.
