      abstract = {This volume explores the reception, development and  construction of Eastern practices in the Nordic countries.  The focus is on spirituality, medicine and healing from a  lived religion perspective. Besides a geographical focus on  the Nordic countries and their characteristics, this  collection examines the embodied practices aligned with  different expressions of religiosity, alternative medicine,  spirituality and healing practices. By addressing questions  about how so-called Eastern practices are embodied, spread  and materialized, the contributors shed light on a cultural  change in Nordic societies regarding religious, spiritual  and alternative health practices, that are at times at odds  with the dominant medical discourse about life-threatening  diseases and other types of conditions.
