About book Reinventing The Body, Resurrecting The Soul: How To Create A New You (2009)
There are massive amounts of information in this book. That was my only complaint: that Chopra covered so much, he sacrificed going into specifics.My favorite part was when he discussed how the body is literally shaped by repressed emotions. By examining someone's posture, you can determine if they (or you) are subconsciously angry, fearful, defensive - even when they (or you) may not realize it themselves. The mind/body connection is, for the most part, dismissed in the western world so I found everything he had to say on the subject fascinating.I also liked the various meditations that he suggested to release emotional trauma or just to encourage your energy to move around. Chopra excels at meditative techniques. I wish he'd talked more about contemplative practices, but again, he went through so much material that I can see why he didn't dwell too long on one topic.I'd recommend this for anyone interested in the body/mind connection, spiritually enlightening practices, or if you're just curious about Chopra's thoughts on the nature of the soul. 4/22/14: Finished the book. I found the introductory chapters to be very novel and insightful ideas but the ending seemed a bit to general and lacked the epiphany-factor.4/10/14: "Live as if you have all the time in the world... this is functional immortality" - Deepak Chopra4/8/14: holistic medicine better than modern medicine, sophistication of humans beyond physical body, Qi Gong introduction, effects of Energy/Thought patterns.
