Changing the World, One Body At A Time: Interview with Marion Rosen, with Valerie Luoto
- Valerie Luoto, Michael Toms and Darsa Nickelson
Article AbstractMarion Rosen was one of the first to discover the relationship between our emotional lives and the condition of our bodies. She developed a system of bodywork so effective that clients release old emotional pain, their relationships improve, and their work life becomes better. As she explains, "By relaxing the muscles, what comes up is some of these [painful] experiences. Instead of holding them down and trying to forget about them, you can handle them." The results are more far reaching than even Ms. Rosen initially expected. She's discovered that real physical and emotional release changes the way people live, and even makes a difference in the lives of their family members and all the people they touch day-to-day.Author BiographyMichael Toms, Ph.D. (hon), is co-founder and host of New Dimensions Radio/Media. He is author of many books including An Open Life: Joseph Campbell in Conversation with Michael Toms; A Time for Choices: Deep Dialogues for Deep Democracy, and co-author with Justine Willis Toms.

- Anais Salibian
Author BiographyDemocrat & Chronicle, May 12, 1998
With the author's experience as a bodyworker, with the support of science, she gives compelling reasons to learn from the "bodymind"
