Publisher's summary

Many words have been written about this period of life sometimes called middle age. What makes Hidden Blessings different is its unique blend of psychological and spiritual guidance to help us respond fully to the transformative invitation of midlife. That invitation is to step away from taking life literally -- and, perhaps, superficially -- to discover a deep and profound underlying existence.

The transformation that is possible during midlife is more than just a continuation of the developmental arc of the first half of our lives; midlife offers the possibility of metamorphosis into an entirely new life with a vaster perspective than we have enjoyed until now. The midlife passage invites the death of who we have known ourselves to be and promises the birth of our authentic, soul-infused self, long suppressed under years of outward obligations. The more we view midlife as a spiritual rebirth rather than something to get over or simply endure, the less likely we are to settle for trying to repackage what we have lived during the first half of our adult lives -- and the more likely we are to discover the full range of the blessings that awaits us if we surrender to the challenging process of unraveling and being transformed.

If you are looking for true hope...

Jett Psaris has clearly navigated a midlife and has, in my opinion, a hopeful way of lighting what appears to be a dark path. I am only into the book several chapters but am very impressed at the insight. Simply put, it made me welcome the midlife rather than fear it! I am seriously excited as to what lies on the other side of the "Egoic Mind"! That being said, my wife and I began really sole searching about two years ago and have read enough on the consciousness and the mind to realize that they are two different entities. Having a rudimentary understanding of this will make what Psaris has laid out, make much more sense! I can only imagine that this book hasn't received a full 5 stars because an intermediate understanding of the ego is extremely beneficial. However, if you can understand that the mind and consciousness are two different entities then I am sure you will be able to extract the valuable message. Not that what I say means anything but I highly recommend this book!
