      "Heal trauma. Reclaim your body. Live with wholeness. These are the gifts of utilizing the power of fundamental consciousness--a subtle field of awareness that lies within each of us. In Trauma and the Unbound Body, Dr. Judith Blackstone explores how we can resolve the mental, physical, and emotional struggles of trauma by connecting to our true essence, which can never be wounded or harmed. Dr. Blackstone is best known as the creator of The Realization Process, a powerful approach to healing and awakening based on deep contact with the internal space of one's body. In this book, she shows us how trauma of the past may haunt our present life by getting unconsciously bound within the fascia (connective tissue) of the body, causing physical and emotional pain. Dr. Blackstone guides us through step-by-step processes to unwind those constrictions by connecting to a transcendent field, setting the body free of trauma once and for all and creating an unbreakable, unified ground of being." --Publisher description

      Exploring the intersection of Asian theories of consciousness and Western psychotherapeutic practices, this book fosters a rich dialogue that enhances understanding of mental health. It delves into how Eastern philosophies can inform and transform Western therapeutic approaches, offering insights into mindfulness, awareness, and the nature of self. By bridging these diverse perspectives, the text aims to create a more holistic framework for psychological well-being and personal growth.

      The Empathic Ground
    • Judith Blackstone's Subtle Self Work is a mind-body therapy integrating teachings from dance, Alexander Technique, psychotherapy, Eastern philosophy, and meditation. A student of both Hindu and Buddhist traditions, Blackstone describes in The Subtle Self her own physical and spiritual healing, as well as a method one can work with to establish a closer connection between the body and mind.

      The Subtle Self
    • The Enlightenment Process describes the process of enlightenment as the gradual realization of our most subtle dimension of unified, all-pervasive consciousness. It also explains how we uncover our authentic selfhood and embodiment at the same time as we arrive at our spiritual oneness with other people, the world, and cosmos.Using a set of simple but effective meditational and physical exercises for "subtle self" work, Judith Blackstone clearly and expertly indicates the way in which we can deepen our spiritual awareness, develop our capacity for contact with other people, and reconnect with the world. Her lifetime of experience in depth-psychology, bodywork, and Kundalini yoga gives this book a distinctive authority and clarity. This revised and expanded version of The Enlightenment Process is an invaluable guide that will lead readers in navigating the confusing or conflicting teachings on enlightenment. It does this by giving a more comprehensive description of the enlightened state. Anyone who has already started on the spiritual path or has a background in psychotherapy will be able to appreciate The Enlightenment Process more fully as it is a significant contribution to our understanding of the more advanced stages of personal growth. Included in the book are 18 practical exercises that will assist readers on this path to self-awareness.

      The Enlightenment Process: A Guide to Embodied Spiritual Awakening (Revised and Expanded)
    • "Zen from its foundation in China of the 6th Century AD, has always been more than a religion. It is an intriguing system of principles and practice designed to give each individual the experience of eternity in a split second, the knowledge of divinity in every living thing. To create a book about Zen, however, is risky. It is one thing to describe the factual history of this exotic strain of Buddhism. It's quite another to successfully convey the crazy wisdom of the Zen masters, their zany sense of their uncanny ability to pass on the experience of enlightenment to their students. The authors of Zen For Beginners have clearly overcome these considerable risks. The books uses an engaging mix of clear, informative writing and delightful illustrations to document the story of Zen from its impact on Chinese and Japanese culture to its influence on American writers such as Japanese culture to its influence on American writers such as Ginsberg and Kerouac."--Amazon.com viewed Oct. 15, 2020

      Belonging Here
    • Es gibt zwei Arten von Traumata: Die erste Art wird ausgelöst durch extreme Ereignisse, die uns mit Wucht treffen, zum Beispiel ein schwerer Unfall oder eine Misshandlung. Die zweite Art sind Beziehungstraumata, die jeder von uns in irgendeiner Form erlebt. Oft liegen die Auslöser in der Kindheit, wenn Ereignisse zu schwerwiegend oder verwirrend waren, um sie angemessen verarbeiten zu können. Während Beziehungstraumata durch kleine schmerzvolle Ereignisse entstehen, die sich wiederholen, muss bei extremen Traumata das Ereignis nur einmal auftreten, um uns dauerhaft zu beeinträchtigen. Wir können uns gut vorstellen, dass es bleibende Auswirkungen auf die Psyche hat, wenn jemand Gewalt erfährt. Schwerer zu verstehen ist allerdings, dass scheinbar unbedeutende Ereignisse, speziell im Kindesalter, unser Erleben für den Rest des Lebens prägen und uns auch traumatisieren können. Auf solch eine Traumatisierung reagiert der Körper, indem er sich gleichsam in sich zusammenzieht und einschnürt; das löst sowohl physische als auch emotionale Schmerzen aus. Häufig kommt es zu chronischer Traurigkeit oder Verzweiflung, zu Wutanfällen oder Panikattacken, Erstarrung oder auch zu einer ständigen Verzerrung der Wahrnehmung, so, als stünden wir immer ein wenig neben uns, als wären wir nicht wirklich anwesend. „So wie sich in einer Faust eine offene Hand verbirgt, verbirgt sich unsere wahre Natur mit ihrer angeborenen Fähigkeit zu Glück, Liebe und Weisheit in unserem Schmerz und unserer Benommenheit. So wie wir eine Faust öffnen können, um unsere Handfläche zu enthüllen, kann unser ungebundenes, echtes Wesen aus unserem Schmerz heraustreten und wieder atmen“, sagt Judith Blackstone. Im Verlauf von mehr als vier Jahrzehnten hat sie eine einfache, aber revolutionäre Methode entwickelt, mit der wir die traumatischen Einschnürungen Schritt für Schritt auflösen können. Mithilfe des Realization Process, einer körperorientierten Meditationstechnik, treten die Betroffenen wieder in Verbindung zu ihrem elementaren Bewusstsein. Dabei geht es auch um spirituelle Heilung: Der Realization Process vereint non-duales spirituelles Erwachen, psychologische Heilung und Verkörperung. So befreien sich Betroffene von ihrem Trauma und finden zu der in ihnen selbst liegenden, unzerstörbaren Sicherheit zurück, die sie vor weiteren Einschränkungen und Traumata schützt.
