Alexander Lowen
December 23, 1910 - October 28, 2008
"As one grows older, the sense of separateness is slowly reduced. Old people do not live on an ego level. Their concerns are not about their individuality but about the river of life, the family, the community, the nation, people, animals, nature, life.
They can die easily if they are assured that life will continue positively, for they feel part of the river again, and soon they will be part of the ocean. When they are very old, they no longer belong to our time and space but to all time and all space." - Alexander Lowen, Fear of Life
Alexander Lowen with Robert Glazer when visiting The Florida Society
for a workshop he presented in 2005.
The Florida Society began offering certification training in Bioenergetics in 1984. Our emphasis is on Alexander Lowen-style Bioenergetics. We offer certification training, personal growth workshops and professional development workshops. As part of Florida Society activities, we provide Bioenergetics Press.
Bioenergetic Analysis is a fifty year old mind-body integrating form of psychotherapy that works actively with the client's breathing, muscular tension patterns and psychological-emotional issues. Bioenergetic Analysis works in a unique fashion by means of physical exercises, emotional release and psychological processing giving the client a very effective alternative to traditional talk psychotherapy.
Dr. Lowen has written 14 books on Bioenergetic Analysis. Click here to see a list of the books.
Robert Glazer, PhD, Certified Bioenergetic Therapist, Licensed Psychologist and Director of the Florida Society edited Dr. Alexander Lowen's Autobiography Honoring the Body in 2004. Visit Bioenergetics Press to purchase books on Bioenergetics.
Historical Visit by Alexander Lowen, MD
Alexander Lowen, MD and Eleanor Greenlee, MFT, presented a workshop entitled "The Master's Workshop" in High Springs, Florida on August 5th - 7th, 2005. The workshop was a testament to Alexander Lowen's lifelong commitment to the body in psychotherapy.
The workshop gave participants a rare opportunity to experience Lowen's form of Bioenergetics that he practiced at age 94. His work always emphasized strong, effective, precise bodywork and psychological interventions to provide the recipient with the experience of regaining the life force that nature had intended. At 94, he remained active, walking several times a day and practicing Bioenergetic exercises, including daily forward rolls and somersaults. Eleanor, a Senior International Bioenergetic Trainer, provided excellent assistance in the sensitive use of the body and her highly esteemed use of self.
