Transpersonal Hypnosis

by Eric D Leskowitz (Editor)

Overview

Transpersonal Hypnosis presents a multidimensional, energy-based view of human awareness that integrates disparate biological, psychological, and spiritual therapeutic techniques. Each of the chapters - all from world-renowned contributors - includes both a historical overview and the theory behind the development of each technique. The authors emphasize experimental studies that examine the validity of using hypnotically accessed transpersonal states of consciousness to heal the body, mind, and spirit. Several clinical vignettes highlight the types of medical and psychological symptoms responsive to these approaches. The emerging field of spiritually-influenced treatments is transforming the practice of medicine.

Altered states researcher Charles Tart probes the fear of psychic phenomena, and psychologist Stanley Krippner contributes cross-cultural perspectives. Yoga, energy healing, channeling, and other holistic applications are explored. Includes resources for further study. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

"Transpersonal Hypnosis explores an ancient yet modern view of the mind-that it extends beyond the body and is free in space and time. Modern physicians, therapists, and scholars are at long last beginning to take seriously this view of consciousness. The implications of this perspective for our origins and destiny are full of hope and promise, as this book compellingly reveals."
-Larry Dossey, M.D., Editor, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine
