Universe of the Human Body: With Gaia Touch Body Exercises

This is a fascinating book that explores how to connect with elemental spirits using the body. The author includes exercises that remind me of qi gong exercises. I ended up applying my qi gong work to what the author described and found that it worked. The premise and the theory of the book is sound and its presents a novel approach to working with elemental spirits that is not typically found in western esotericism. If there’s one thing that detracts from the book, its the occasional new age preachiness, but its still worth a read.

For readers familiar with Marko Pogacnik's Earth Healing books and seminars, you'll be happy to learn about Gaia Touch exercises for healing your own body. One of the best-written of Pogacnik's books yet, it details changes in the human body that he has observed over 3 decades and how they are connected with the changes in Gaia's body. Amply illustrated with the author's drawings. Highly recommended for sensitive individuals, bodyworkers, somatic therapists, and Earth healers. Esoteric acupuncturists might find much of interest here too.From the prologue:"The book that you hold in your hands is a sincere attempt to decode the integral human body in the context of what I call the 'Earthly Cosmos.'"Using my experience of exploring the landscape from my geomantic work, I approach the body in a similar way, through a kind of multidimensional perception. It means, in this case, to enter one's own body space in a subtle manner, and to experience its different extensions from inside."

The first review here covers the main points. If seeing inner light and hearing inner sound is your goal, this is not quite that. However this is very close to these goals.I describe Marko as Rudolf Steiner as if was alive today. Marko's interests are clairvoyance, human harmony, harmony between humans and elementals, social get togethers to bless the land and individual artistic expressions of how this can happen. I'm surprised I Have yet to see him mention Sufi Samuel Lewis' Dances of Universal Peace (Sufi Dancing). Marko's insights seem just what is needed to revitalize the Dances.

He is brilliant!
