Personal Mythology is a powerful antidote for modern lives caught in the disorienting grip of a world in turmoil. This newly expanded and updated edition brings to you a highly successful seminar that has been evolving for more than three decades. An engaging book/CD “workshop,” it is being assigned as homework by a growing number of psychotherapists and used to structure meetings in numerous men’s and women’s groups, recovery programs, and other settings where people are committed to deep personal change.
Your personal mythology—comprised of beliefs and motivations that operate largely outside your conscious awareness—is the internal guidance system that shapes your journey. The more effective your guiding mythology, the better equipped you are to meet the challenges your life presents.
