The book is liberally sprinkled with stories throughout, which I was prepared to be delighted by.But I found the stories to be annoyingly bloodless, nicey-nicey, politically correct fairy tales that didn't grab me at all. (Full disclosure: as a 6-year-old, I hated sanitized fairy tales! I always went for the scary ones with evil ogres and witches and damsels in dire distress. So maybe it's just me!)As a matter of fact, I througoughly read the intro (which was intriguing and filled me with anticipation) and the first chapter. I just "spot-skimmed" through the rest, hoping to find the parts Donna felt were "thrilling." I just felt so bored by what I was reading that I just could not go on!For instance, in the first chapter, whose subject is the Heart, the author lists the "Basic Heart Story Dynamic" as "Anger becomes unconditional love." I have had a profoundly powerful personal experience of this dynamic, but I found the stories that were supposed to express this annoyingly tepid and lifeless.In terms of what the various organs represent, I found the stories which are supposed to stimulate and awaken those energies too broad to really get any sort of sense or resonance about the nature the whatever organ it represented for the most part.I'm giving this book the benefit of the doubt with 3 stars - if Donna Eden loved it so much, I must be missing something! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Therapeutic Power of Stories to Heal *by K***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2013* This is an amazing perspective on how story can heal the body. In her creative and thoughful way, Nancy Mellon gives the reader a look into how each organ of the body is energetically connected to one another, and responds to the healing power of stories. Armed with this information, she then guides the reader through some time-honored stories that illustrate the various story elements, themes, and motifs, that resonate with each specific organ. The next step in her process, is to then allow the reader to become their own storyteller. Through specific exercises, which can be done individually and in groups, Nancy helps the reader bring to life their own versions of tales that speak to a particular organ.This book can be very helpful for both children and adults who are in need of "story healing". I would recommend it to all health professional and caregivers of the young and old, as well as teachers and parents. As Joseph Campbell has revealed the power of myth and storytelling in his many volumes, Nancy Mellon extends this understanding and illuminates the power of storytelling and story creating to heal the body and the soul. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Body Eloquence" is a brilliant contribution to current culture and a guidebook to enlightenment *by M***L on Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2018* "Body Eloquence" is more than a book – it is a manual for living one's life. This masterpiece guides one into deeper understanding of the subtleties of one's body and Self, thereby developing compassion for others. Its genius is the unique interplay of modalities – music and movement, story, myth, Chinese medicine and meridians, yoga exercises and more. When applied to one's daily practice – clearly outlined in each chapter – the wisdom of the ages comes to life in modern expression. This book holds the potential for a lifetime study, with its many gems for practical use. "Body Eloquence" is a brilliant contribution to current culture and a guidebook to enlightenment. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/117346069-body-eloquence-the-power-of-myth-and-story-to-awaken](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/117346069-body-eloquence-the-power-of-myth-and-story-to-awaken) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-10-04*
