Coma

Good extension of the Mindells' work. As soon as I heard about it, I wanted a copy.

There is some pretty critical information in here for people dealing with Coma as well as altered states of consciousness -- especially near death.Mindell suggests (and shows) that people experiencing these things are very much "alive" despite being in a vegetative state, and provides encouraging stories about how such people have been helped and communicated with using what he calls "Process" therapy.If you know someone going through this, please find a copy of this book and/or something else on the topic of process therapy. It may mean the world.

Arnold Mindell offers inspiring and though provoking examples of innovative techniques for communicating with those often thought to be past human interaction. He offers good theoretical and technical advice. As a health care provider, I found this book easy to read and very thought provoking. My family also had the opportunity to employ some of these ideas with one of our own family members, and it made a wonderful difference. This is a great resource for anyone interested in exploring new and creative realms of human communication and spiritual journeying when coping with life-threatening illness.
