Summary

George Leonard, author of Education and ecstasy, The Silent pulse, The Ultimate athlete, The Transformation, and Walking on the edge of the world is an aikido black belt and the developer of a psychophysical system called Leonard Energy Training. In this two-part program, he demonstrates several awareness exercises including: balancing and centering, transforming pain to energy, "soft eyes," and "energy arm." In Part 2, Leonard demonstrates how the body can learn to receive energy from a sudden hit, shock or surprise. Another exercise, "crystalline state," provides a means for temporarily setting aside expectations, judgments and considerations, thus allowing your mind and heart to perceive in a clear, unbiased way.
