"This book is probably the best introduction to the subject of chakras one could have; whether one only wants to know about the general scheme of the chakras, or how to use them for health, philosophy or centering. The illustrations and practical exercises make this the most comprehensive book yet on this fascinating subject. It should arouse both excitement and new awareness in the healing community and I hope it has the success it deserves. It is well-researched, based on sound principles, and lucidly written." -- Marion Zimmer Bradley Mists of Avalon A useful and exciting discussion of energy, and a valuable resource book. How refreshing to read information on the chakras presented in a way that affirms women and the erotic, and encourages social as well as personal change." -- Starhawk The Spiral Dance Anodea Judith has finally done what was needed to explain the vital energy systems of the body. The best explanation I've ever seen." -- Sw. Virato New Frontier Magazine The first really eclectic study of the Chakra system. Anodea Judith is to be congratulated for producing a brilliant cluster of magic, philosophy, psychology and scientific information, as spokes extending from the hub of each Chakra. Wheels of Life is both an experiential introduction to the psychic tree and an invaluable reference work. .. a brilliant cluster of magic, philosophy, psychology and scientific information -- a scintillating synthesis as bright as the etheric star system she elucidates." -- Dr. Jonn Mumford, Ecstasy Through Tantra
