The spirituality of feeling: An interview with Michael Jawer. Interview by Nancy Nachman-Hunt.
Michael Jawer is coauthor of The Spiritual Anatomy of Emotion (Park Street Press, 2009) and has written extensively on a variety of subjects for trade and professional associations and for the US government. Jawer has spent the past decade exploring the physiological underpinnings of feeling, how it may underlie consciousness, how various individuals process feelings, and whether that processing plays a role in psychosomatic conditions such as migraine headaches, synesthesia, chronic fatigue, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Mr Jawer's collaborator and medical editor is Marc Micozzi, MD, PhD, adjunct professor of physiology and biophysics at the Georgetown University School of Medicine, Washington DC, and editor of the first US textbook devoted to complementary medicine, Fundamentals of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (Elsevier, 1996).
