Product Description
The causal point of the things that occur in our everyday experience isn t in the actions of others, but within each of us. During our early years, we are imprinted by the emotional condition of those responsible for us. Their emotional state overlays the essence of who we are, so that we learn to behave like them instead of growing up to be ourselves. In Alchemy of the Heart, we are asked to become conscious of the ways we were imprinted and how these imprints drive our behavior. Our guide in achieving this is the heart and the language of felt-perception. Through this language, the heart enables us to re-parent ourselves and frees us to love unconditionally. This journey is about allowing ourselves to feel life--to be present and awake in each moment, so that we really experience everything. It is the chance to participate actively, responsibly, and creatively in our lives.

A Jewel Box May 2, 2008 18 out of 19 found this review helpful
As a stand alone or a companion to Michael Brown's "The Presence Process," this book is a jewel box of precious gems. "The Presence Process" is as important a discovery as Genpo Roshi's Big Mind, and if Ken Wilber is the Einstein of consciousness, Michael Brown is the Einstein of emotional body awareness. "Alchemy of the Heart" provides substantial inner nutrition for anyone undertaking the destinationless journey of Self discovery.
The Real Thing April 20, 2008 11 out of 28 found this review helpful
I loved this book and I have read, quite literally, hundreds of book focusing on the philosophy of the self, Buddhism, Taoism, and Advaita. This one, finally, lays to rest the myth of enlightenment and brings the restless soul to peace. Life is not a matter of searching for an ever-ellusive happiness. Rather, as Brown says, it is about ending this search through integration - that true peace is a consequence of living the life of our unchanging self, what he calls the vibrational self. This is a MUST read for anyone "entranced" with such a search. Alas, I do have just one complaint....sometimes the writing becomes a little dense and convoluted and its potential for clarity suffers as a result. The positive side of this problem is that it forces the reader to concentrate that much harder to find the gems of insight embedded deeply within the test. Very, very strongly recommended.
