Aquarian Amazon

Anneliese Widman, Ph.D.
(1921-2019)

A psychotherapist with years of private practice in New York City.  Her first career was a Broadway dancer, introduced her to the body’s subtle energies.  That led her to formal study of Bioenergetics and training with its founders, Alexander Lowen, M.D., and John Pierrakos, M.D.  Her innovative approach to therapy has since expanded to include a fusion of psychoanalysis and spirituality, which she describes in all of her books.

Thank you for visiting and we hope you enjoy the life, history, books and teachings.

Aquarian Amazon is the amazing, imaginative story of a modern man and woman who – in searching for inner peace – discover they are reenacting the struggles of a couple who lived seven thousand years earlier.  The other couple, they realize, its themselves – their souls – in the ancient beginnings of problems that still trouble them today.  Those problems, which involve the couple’s fundamental male and female aspects, are addressed as the story unfolds, in this gripping tale of emotional challenge and profound psychological truth.  

“Dr. Widman dares to go where few psychologists have gone before.  Her heroine’s riveting story’s given me a guide for my own journey to wholeness.“
