Soul Therapy is the culmination of Thomas Moore's work. In his previous acclaimed books, he explored the soul in important areas of our lives-work, sex, marriage, family, religion, and aging. In this wise guide, he now returns to his core vocation: teaching practitioners-therapists, psychiatrists, ministers, spiritual directors, and others-how to offer soul care to those they assist. A training manual infused with a lifetime's worth of wisdom, Soul Therapy is divided into five sections: What therapy or "soul care" is and how it works; What soul work is required of the helper to be able to address the needs of others; How to access and move forward the spiritual dimension; How to apply this work to specific areas, such as work, marriage, parenting, or teaching; How to deal with other issues that arise, such as developing a therapeutic style, dealing with one's shadow, and the need for self-care. Profound yet practical, enlightened yet grounded in real-world experience, Soul Therapy will become a definitive resource for caregivers and practitioners for years to come
