130 Short Stories about Arnold Mindell

Arnold Mindell began to develop Process Oriented Psychology in the late 1970s and 80s in Switzerland, and this paradigm has since grown to include practitioners and learners worldwide. Also known as Process Work, its practical applications encompass work with individuals, couples, and groups, as well as with body symptoms, relationships, dreams, and large group processes. It is an awareness practice based on following the unique signals and experiences of individuals or groups with the fundamental assumption that each process contains its own meaning and wisdom. This book contains entertaining stories - and sometimes revealing memories - about Arnold Mindell, contributed by friends, family, colleagues, and seminar participants, as well as fifty expressive photos. Compiled and edited by his wife and partner in all things, Amy Mindell, the stories not only give compelling examples of the brilliance of Process Work in action but also provide insights into an extraordinary man, his unique teaching style and work in private sessions and consultations - affording rare, behind-the-scenes views of his art and passion over a remarkable sixty years of practice.
