The body has its reasons for a reason,
This review is from: The Body Has Its Reasons (Paperback)
I LOVED this book. It is a lovely, simple little book that really makes you think about how and why we move the way we do. The author speaks from her heart and her experiences, so it reads more like a novel then a learning text (although I learned tons from it).I would highly recommend it to anyone but especially to movement or body work specialists.

awaken body memories,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Body Has Its Reasons (Paperback)
I was impressed with the method presented. Finally, something to help me get in touch with my cell memories/feelings, correct them and be better for it! The only problem is that there is no one to teach here....... Anyone teaching this method, please feel free to contact me at Rikitikitavi97@aol.com.

The Passionate Advocate,
By
This review is from: The Body Has Its Reasons (Paperback)
Written by a woman whose husband - himself a medical doctor - died in hospital from suspected neglect, this book is a uniquely satisfying revenge. For here, Therese Bertherat makes bold declarations and assertions, tearing the shroud from the naked dead body of society's assumptions about the medical profession, health, exercise and physical therapy. Her writing is passionate, with the certitude of a preacher. And why not? This is hot stuff!I have been teaching yoga professionally for 16 years, and I totally empathize with her stories of treating students with her method - gleaned from her amazing teachers and which she calls Preliminaries. She describes with sometimes breath taking clarity her viewpoints, the incidents which led up to their formulation, the difficulty in working with the bodies of unconscious people and the shadow presence of something else which resists being helped at all. So much of it was familiar to me from my own work. No airy fairy theories here, folks. Just real life experience which can be applied practically. If you are into alternative therapies in general and body work in particular, this book is not to be missed. Sravaniya DiPecoraro, Yoga Instructor, Hong Kong, 1999
