Religion Used to Be a Taboo Subject in Therapy, but Nowadays Therapists Are Increasingly Turning to Religion for Inspiration in Their Work

Psychology and religion used to be kept separate, much like church and state. But recently therapists have begun to turn towards ancient religious traditions for inspiration in their work. This trend is described in a new book called: Sacred Therapy: Jewish Spiritual Teachings on Emotional Healing and Inner Wholeness (Shambhala). Written by a seasoned psychotherapist who has been a teacher of Jewish mysticism for over thirty years, it applies the healing wisdom of the Kabbalah to the practice of psychology. (PRWEB) May 11, 2005 — Psychology and religion used to be kept separate, much like church and state. But recently therapists have begun to turn towards ancient religious traditions for inspiration in their work. This trend is described in Sacred Therapy: Jewish Spiritual Teachings on Emotional Healing and Inner Wholeness (Shambhala), a new book on the interface of psychology and spirituality. Chosen as a best spiritual book of 2004 by Spirituality %26 Health Magazine, Sacred Therapy illuminates the healing wisdom of the Kabbalah and applies these spiritual insights to the practice of psychotherapy. Written by Estelle Frankel, a seasoned psychotherapist who has been a student and teacher of Kabbalah for over thirty years, Sacred Therapy reveals how people of any faith can draw upon Jewish spiritual teachings to gain wisdom, clarity, and a deeper sense of meaning in the midst of modern life. According to Frankel, “we live in a time of unprecedented material abundance and spiritual poverty. People are desperate to find a deeper sense of meaning and purpose in their lives.” Kabbalah, the mystical teachings of Judaism, offers a great deal of promise for today’s spiritual seekers and Estelle Frankel, an esteemed teacher of this ancient spiritual tradition, offers a powerful glimpse into its healing potential, without the Hollywood-hype of the Kabbalah Center.
