Pleasure: A Creative Approach to Life - Alexander Lowen - Paperback

One of the world's leading innovators in the field of psychology shows you how to expand and realize your capacity to feel your body's aliveness, natural freedom, and spontaneity. A more creative life through pleasure is the promise of this revolutionary book. Defining pleasure as "a bodily experience," Dr. Alexander Lowen states that "there is no such thing as pure mental pleasure" and points out that "the capacity for pleasure is also the capacity for creative self-expression." In most adults, however, the struggle for power competes with the striving for pleasure, undermines creativity, and causes muscular tensions. Pleasure offers a way out of this dilemma through a series of bioenergetic exercises. These exercises are described in easy-to-follow detail. Their aim is to help the body regain its natural freedom and spontaneity and to release not only pleasure but also joyous creativity.Lowen, Alexander is the author of 'Pleasure: A Creative Approach to Life - Alexander Lowen - Paperback' with ISBN 9780140040333 and ISBN 0140040331.
