  • 소개/요약Meditation and yoga in psychotherapy is an inspiring "how-to" guide grounded in the neuroscientific and clinical evidence that supports the use of meditation and other yoga practices to improve clients' mental health. Drawing from the authors' decades of practice, teaching, and writing, this inspiring book is focused on applying meditation and yoga to therapy, with discussion of the latest neuroscience findings, showing how the brain and larger nervous system are altered by yoga methods. It also covers philosophical and psychological principles upon which yoga is based. It later explains the how, when, and why for use of specific techniques with common psychological problems. Fundamental stretching exercises and meditation techniques are also examined. Filled with vivid case examples and writings from renowned yoga masters, Meditation and yoga in psychotherapy encourages a therapeutic process in which clients move their attention from outside concerns to inner mindfulness. With a range of techniques that embrace the diversity and uniqueness of clients, this book offers methods to creatively individualize techniques for a wide variety of presenting problems.
