簡介(Book Description from Google)：
Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, Volume One presents craniosacral therapy as a compassionate healing art that can be used by psychologists, midwives, chiropractors, and massage and physical therapists. Author Michael Shea explains how the fluids of the body hold stress and offers practical, extremely gentle touch exercises that help practitioners heal physical, spiritual, and emotional conditions in both infants and adults. He also presents a unique perspective on depth psychology and embryology—the defining differences between biodynamic craniosacral therapy and other forms of cranial therapy.

Definitely worth owning
I've been involved in alternative health since my early 20's and have read and studied extensively in body and energy work, nutrition, and numerous forms of healing, far too many to mention. I gravitate naturally to energy work and have been very interested in the visionary aspects of cranial therapy ever since reading the books of Milne, Gilchrist, and Sills. Dr. Shea's book easily holds it's own with these forward thinking individuals and helped open new insights in my thought process regarding the role of embryology, psychology, and mythology as it relates not only to energy work but also to us as human beings. He started me thinking in whole new directions from perspectives I had only touched upon in the past. For me the section on embryology was worth the cost of the book but there was so much more as a bonus. I have not studied cranial osteopathy, or cranial sacral therapy, specifically but have come to many of the same experiences mentioned in these books naturally in my own journey with energy healing. Not having the same terminology as an osteopath some of the material went over my head not because I couldn't understand it but more because I was less interested in trying to learn it. I was able to get the underlying meaning quite easily anyway because of Dr. Shea's writing style. I would highly recommend anyone involved in healing, or therapy, to read this book as there are a ton of insights in it that will help any therapist regardless of modality. Dr. Shea is very engaging, extremely honest about his own past experiences, which I found truly authentic and much appreciated, and he is also an enjoyable writer...important in such a book. Believe me, as I've read many such books that weren't and they can be agonizingly long. I am looking forward to the next volume in the series when it comes out and will be among the first to buy it. Biodynamic Cranial Therapy is one for the book shelf. Hope this helps.

Biodynamics as Embodied Spirituality
This book was a delightful surprise for me. A long-term student of vitalistic chiropractic, biodynamics, poetry, and the Natural World, I was very pleased to see that this book embodied all of that and more. Today, we are witnessing the "waking up" of many people in the West, many of whom teach, hold satsang, and give pointers to the "beyond the Beyond." In this book, Michael Shea doesn't just write about Truth, but teaches ways to perceive and access It, in ways that are simple, profound, even romantic (in the best, biggest sense of the word). Sure, this is another in a stream of (mostly wonderful) books on the "new" field of Craniosacral Biodynamics, and it succeeds on that front. But, more importantly---to me---this text skillfully posits cranial work almost as a metaphor for the spiritual path of the Natural andd Naturally Non-Dual World and ushers you towards the means to embody that. And---this is only Volumee One of Three!

It's impact has been truly seminal for me!
Michael J. Shea is so generous! I'm half way through his book and I'm changed forever! For the very first time, I can see inside me and I've started to clear up the clutter. Thus my time has lengthened and I can accomplish more & be more effective in my communication with others. I feel so confident now with regard to my career & my life. And I'm getting great responses from the outside world; thus validating my new direction.
