Energy psychology and why skeptics and wikipedia hate it so

Rick Leskowitz, MD is a board certified psychiatrist specializing in energy psychology and pain management. He practiced at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital in Boston that advocates a body-mind-spirit approach. He was also an instructor in the Department of Psychiatry of Harvard Medical School where he directed the hospital’s Integrative Medicine Task Force and he held appointments at Tufts Medical School. Over the years Rick has organized several conferences on the topic of Complementary and Alternative Medicine in rehabilitation.  After traveling through India in the mid-1970s, he became interested in subtle energy and its relationships to anatomy, health and mental well being, as well as the benefits of meditation and spiritual practice. This led Rick to becoming one of the leaders in energy psychology. And he is the author of "Sports, Energy and Consciousness" (co-written with Ken Wilber) and "Transpersonal Hypotherapy: Gateway to Body, Mind and Spirit."
