Soulcraft

Crossing into the Mysteries of Nature and Psyche

De: Bill Plotkin PhD

Narrado por: Rob Grgach

Since 1980, depth psychologist Bill Plotkin has been guiding women and men into the wilderness - the redrock canyons and snow-crested mountains of the American West - but also into the wilds of the soul. He calls this work soulcraft.

There's a great longing in all people to uncover the secrets and mysteries of our individual lives, to find the unique gift we were born to bring to our communities, and to experience our full membership in the more-than-human world. This journey to soul is a descent into layers of the self, much deeper than personality, a journey meant for each one of us, not just for the heroes and heroines of mythology.

A modern handbook for the journey, Soulcraft is not an imitation of indigenous ways, but a contemporary nature-based approach born from wilderness experience, the traditions of Western culture, and the cross-cultural heritage of all humanity. Filled with stories, poems, and guidelines, Soulcraft introduces over 40 practices that facilitate the descent to soul, including dreamwork, wilderness vision fasts, talking across the species boundaries, council, self-designed ceremony, nature-based shadow work, and the arts of romance, being lost, and storytelling.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Here is an abundantly wise and carefully crafted survival guide for the wild soul currently dozing (or dying) at the heart of your civilized life." (David Abram, author of The Spell of the Sensuous)

Great book/terrible narrator

The narrator is a robot-void of any emotion or gravity in his reading. Get the actual book.

Great audiobook

great book if you don't have time to read it but still want to take it in.

a book everyone should read

loved it.
Plotkin's model resonates deeply.
it offers not only an explanation behind the call but also a roadmap of how to respond and live beyond it

Very interesting

I was happy to hear that some psychotherapists consider soul in its relation to Spirit.
Very useful and interesting book.

Great book

Overall Bill Plotkin's books are great, trying to describe abstract ideas that may have some relevance in some people's lives.
