Professor Bradford Keeney, PhD, is an internationally
renowned scholar, author, and therapist. His 2007 book, Shaking Medicine: TheHealing Power of Ecstatic Movement, reintroduces the oldest medicine on
earth--the ecstatic shaking of the human body. Most people's worst fear is
losing control--of their circumstances, of their emotions, and especially of
their bodies. Yet in order to achieve the transcendent state necessary to
experience deep healing, we must surrender control. Examining cultural
traditions from around the world where shaking has been used as a form of
healing--from the Shakers and Quakers of New England to the shaking medicine of
Japan, India, the Caribbean, the Kalahari, and the Indian Shakers of the
Pacific Northwest--Bradford Keeney shows how shaking can bring forth profound
therapeutic benefits. Read more.
