Character Analysis

Book • 1933
In 'Character Analysis', Wilhelm Reich expands psychoanalytic resistance into a more inclusive technique, focusing on character attitudes that block emotional excitations.

He introduces the concept of 'character armor', which is linked to chronic muscular spasms, integrating mind and body in a biophysical approach to disease prevention.

The book is considered a foundational work in understanding human behavior and neurosis.
