What guides us when our world is changing? Discover the path to deeper meaning and purpose through depth psychology and classical thought. How did we get to this crossroads in history? And will we make it through-individually and as a species? "We all assumed that learning, rationality, and good intentions would prove enough to bring us to the promised land," says Dr. James Hollis. "But they haven't and won't. Yet what we also do not recognize sufficiently is that this human animal is equipped for survival. In time, as we have seen of life's other insolubles, we grow large enough to contain what threatened to destroy us." Hollis's students know him as a penetrating thinker who brings profound insight and sophistication to the inner journey. In Living Between Worlds, he broadens his lens to encompass the relationship between our inner struggles and the rapidly shifting realities of modern human existence. You will learn to invoke the tools of depth psychology, classical literature, philosophy, dreamwork, and myth to gain access to the resources that supported our ancestors through their darkest hours. Through these paths of inner exploration, you will access your "locus of knowing"-an inner wellspring of deep resilience beyond the ego, always available to guide you back to the imperatives of your soul. Though many of the challenges of our times are unique, the path through for us personally and collectively will always rely on our measureless capacity for creativity, wisdom, and connection to a reality larger than ourselves. Here, you will find no easy answers or pat reassurances. Yet as you listen to Living Between Worlds, you will encounter causes for hope. "We can find what supports us when nothing supports us," Hollis teaches. "By bearing the unbearable, we go through the desert to arrive at a nurturing oasis we did not know was there.".… (meer)

There were a few useful things here, but mostly the author is just fanboying over Carl Jung. There's a running insistence that we must analyze our dreams in order to grow mentally/spiritually, and that dreams always are trying to tell us something about how our actions/choices aren't living up to our actual values. I'm curious what the author would say my dreams about bouncing on cotton candy clouds mean.
Overall, I do not recommend this book and feel that finishing it was a waste of my time. ( )

What an insightful book, another gem by James Hollis, and probably my favorite of the few I have read of his authoring. Personally, reading his words and the way he distills Jung’s complex and deep ideas, refreshes my conviction of diving deeply inward into my own humanity, and make this journey truly my own, even if it’s not what I think it’s about. Excellent book. ( )
