Reviews for Zen Therapy
Inspirational!
This book inspires me! My greatest interest has always been in the area where psychology, philosophy and spirituality meet and David Brazier has created a book that hits that spot. As someone interested in personal growth, I can sit at the feet of the author, be there in his therapy sessions and aspire to relate to others in the ways that he does. As someone who has trained as a therapist I am humbled by the depth of his caring and compassion for his clients and the extent of his skills. My interest in Zen and Buddhist teachings are satisfied by his explanations and examples. At times I would skip through the terminology like dhyana or maitri although all are explained within the text and the glossary. The author refers to many other works; there is a bibliography and a good index. If you like the works of Carl Rogers you'll love this book. I plan to re-read and dip into this book many times - it will be my companion for the rest of my life. by Shabra Dowson
