Emotional Freedom

Judith Orloff skillfully teaches listeners how to turn negative emotions into a newfound sense of emotional freedom. Orloff's approach to emotional freedom involves combining Western psychological concepts with mindfulness training and yoga breathing techniques. Her direct and accessible writing style is reflected in Kirsten Potter's narration. Potter's performance is a straightforward narration with limited variation in tone. Her delivery style matches the clinical rather than spiritual approach of the book. Newcomers to Eastern mind training will find Orloff's introduction to Buddhist and yoga techniques welcoming. Her section on "emotional vampires" is especially insightful for anyone plagued with toxic relationships. J.T. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
