Reinventing the Body, Resurrecting the Soul: How to Create a New You

This book is rich with insights that confirm what science is discovering and ancient wisdom has always known, namely that there is much more to the "physical" body than what you see. More and more, we are hearing that the body is a flow of energy and intelligence, that it has no boundaries, and that the body and the mind are inseparably connected. In this amazing book, Deepak doesn't just describe that process, he tells you the part you play in making the body what it is. He explains how your state of mind affects every part of your body. Then he shows you how to tune your mind to a subtler level, and he tells you who the "you" is that is doing all this.For so long, we have thought of ourselves as a body that is conscious, but we have had the formula backwards. We are spiritual beings who are using a physical body for this space/time experience. Learning to think of ourselves as eternal beings opens us to what Deepak calls our immortal nature, whose home is the field of consciousness that is creating all that we see and know. Deepak tells us that when we come in contact consciously with that field, as we can do during meditation, "the brain mirrors it and the body has no choice but to shift. When that shift happens, the soul expands beyond its normal boundaries," and we begin to experience the wholeness that is the very substratum of Who and What We Are.Having said all that, Deepak then goes on to explain what life can be like when we connect consciously to the infinite aspect of our being. That connection changes our behavior even at the level of the soul, and when the soul changes, "the whole dance changes with you."Connecting with life at this deep level teaches us experientially that we are not just this body. We are unbounded awareness, and at that level, to quote Deepak, "You are enough. You are everything you need."How to live at this level? He talks about that, too. "Giving opens the flow," he tells us. "There will always be enough of what your soul has to give, so trust the flow. Look for the larger picture. Think on the cosmic scale. And always seek the highest outcome. The deeper your awareness, the richer your creation."In other words, we create ourselves - and our life - at the level of the soul. And just in case you hadn't thought of this yet, he concludes by telling us not only that the soul is our sacred body, "it is the junction point between infinity and the relative world."The mind can only take us so far, but "where thinking fails, consciousness is free to go on. The process of reinventing the body and resurrecting the soul is a journey, and the journey never ends." This is an amazing piece of work. I've read it three times already, and no doubt will be referring to it for a long time. If you are looking for a way to expand your boundaries and get in touch with your deeper self, then this book definitely is for you.

Exactly what I expected.Book was a good price. Deepak Chopra walks the reader through physical and spiritual energy, and how to use these principles to achieve better physical and spiritual health.

This is a wonderful book! It is a guide to developing a reflective life--one in which we are continually aware of our level of soul or consciousness in everything we do, say or think. We are asked to make choices that keep us on the high road. We are asked to open our hearts to all the guidance and direction that is here for us every minute of every day. I love the way Deepak Chopra writes. We don't have to analyze his words in the "left brain" manner. Rather we can gather the ideas from his writings in a meditative, holistic way. Mahalo, Dr. Chopra, for your gift.

This was a good read for me. Quite eye opening...At the time I was going through a transformation in my life. Jaded by Dogmatic religions and feeling like Frederich Nietche this gave me a new sort of approach to bettering myself mentally physically as well as spiritually . I now know how to heal my body mind and spirit and keep myself on a better path. Truly inspirational book... made me begin researching a lot of holistic medicine, get away from prescription drugs. Distancing myself from toxic people and situations. And even meditating or simply taking a 10 minute rest from the rat-race really does amazing things. (slight personal digression there ;) Deepak goes at life from every conceivable angle (Sciences of Psychology and Medicine as well as spirituality {more so than typical religious dogma} Keep an open mind when you read this one and you can get a lot from it.

Deepak Chopra has done it again - opened doors within my mind and soul I had no idea were shut. Answered deep questions I've harbored within me since childhood. Mended wounds without names or titles. He teaches how to enliven the body through the wisdom of soul, how to become friends with the mind and utilize it as the tool it is, and how to begin a new life with each waking dawn. A MUST READ.

Muy buen regalo

This book offers information on intangible parts of the human soul and mind and offers ways to have results be positive if given a chance.

Deepak is a profound writer. This is the first book I have read by him and I thirsted for more. I ordered five more of his books, 2 hard cover and three on my kindle. He explains and reiterates so well all his subject matter, I feel a deep understanding to his meaningful insights. I can imagine myself becoming addicted to his works as he brings much peace and stillness into my being. I truly desire for all to be touched by the peace his words instill, and most highly recommend this book.

I appreciate the words of wisdom of this book. A read to ponder upon, for sure. There are several exercises also, to check in with yourself, which I find helpful. The package came quickly and was as expected.

Estaría muy bueno si fuera de la 3a parte de tamaño. Alarga mucho todo lo que diceal grado que se torna aburrido.

Sehr gute Qualität wie beschrieben!

I've felt intense excitement reading this book. That says it all. Thankyou Deepak for illuminating who I already am. I would love to meet you one day. Cheers from Australia!

We got accustomed to great books by Deepak Chopra... This one is no exception. Without Dr Chopra contribution to the propagation of ayurveda outside the Indian subcontinent, we would still be in the dark ages ,,, Dr Chopra tells us about consciousness and how to integrate it in our daily life to improve our passage on earth ...
