Jean Shinoda Bolen Knihy

Možná znáte ženu, které nechybí vášeň, moudrost, humor, odvaha a životní elán. Ženu, která věří sobě a tomu, co ví. Silnou bytost, která neodvrací zrak před skutečností, jakkoliv je složitá a náročná. Tu, která si uvědomuje vlastní i cizí nedostatky a místo tvrdého odsouzení pro ně má spíše laskavé pochopení. Je příjemné pobývat v její blízkosti. Ale ještě lepší jen se jí stát.

Mýty jsou úžasné příběhy a jsou ještě zajímavější, když si uvědomíme, že nám mohou sdělit intimní pravdy o nás i ostatních. Jean Shinoda Bolenová oživuje řecký panteon v našich vnitřních archetypech a aplikuje sílu mýtů na naše osobní životy. Když porozumíme přirozenému postupu od mýtu k archetypu a osobní psychice, a uvědomíme si, že pozitivní dary i negativní tendence jsou rysy jednotlivých bohyní, které v nás sídlí, získáme výjimečný vhled do svého nitra. Některé ženy se více věnují profesnímu životu a úspěchu a jiné cítí naplnění svého poslání jako manželky a matky podle toho, která bohyně je nejvíce ovládá. Bolenová učí ženy, jak by se měly rozhodnout, které rysy bohyní rozvíjet, a které potlačovat, a také, jak využít síly archetypů, aby byly ve svém životě tou správnou hrdinkou.

Understanding the Moments That Touch and Transform Our Lives Who hasn't experienced that eerie coincidence, that sudden, baffling insight, that occasional flash of extrasensory perception that astonishes? Can these events be dismissed as mere chance, or do they have some deeper significance for us? The twenty-fifth anniversary edition of this classic explores the inter-relationship between these meaningful coincidences and our intuitive sense that we are part of some deep oneness with the universe -- a oneness called Tao in Eastern philosophy and synchronicity in Jungian psychology. By relating the concepts of Tao and synchronicity, Dr. Bolen reveals important links between psychology and mysticism, right brain and left, the individual and the external world. The Tao of Psychology provides the key for each individual to interpret the synchronistic events in his or her life and gives fresh insight into the relationships, dreams, and flashes of perception that transform our existence.

Crone years are ''growing'' years, when women can devote their time, energy, and creativity to what really matters to them. Bolen offers us a blueprint: Crones don't whine. They're juicy, and they trust their own instincts. They don't grovel. They do meditate. They choose the path with heart. Crones are fierce about what matters most to them. They speak the truth with compassion. They listen to their bodies, reinvent themselves as needed, and savor the good in their lives. Turn to these thirteen brief pieces again and again, in bad times and good, alone and with others - because ''Crones Together Can Change the World, '' as Bolen points out in an inspirational, call-to-arms bonus essa

"Knowing which archetypes are stirring and strong in you will help you to come into your own third phase with additional consciousness," says Jean Shinoda Bolen. When Bolen's earlier book Goddesses in Everywoman was first published, it became a surprise bestseller and an unexpected star in the womens' spirituality movement. Bolen viewed archetypal patterns from a Jungian-feminist point of view as they affected the first two phases of a woman's life. Now she has devoted an entire book to the third phase of a woman's life, that of a "green and juicy crone." Here again, the goddesses (Demeter, Artemis, Persephone etc,) as they would age are invoked as role models as well as some non-Western goddesses. All can add perspective and wisdom to any woman's Act III.

In its original edition, this culmination of Jean Shinoda Bolen's life's work sold over 25,000 copies. Now in paperback for the first time Urgent Message from Mother is a call to action for all the women of the world. This unique combination of visionary thinking and practical how-to seeks to galvanize the power of women acting together in order to save our world. Bolen outlines the lessons we can learn from the women's movement, draws on Jungian psychology and the sacred feminine, and gives powerful examples of women coming together all over the globe and making a significant impact.

In this challenging and enlightening companion volume to the bestselling Goddesses in Everywoman, Jean Shinoda Bolen turns her attention to the powerful inner patterns--or archetypes--that shape men's personalities, careers, and personal relationships. Viewing these archtypes as the inner counterparts of the outer world of cultural stereotypes, she demonstrates how men an women can gain an nvaluable sense of wholeness and integration when what they do is consistent with who they are. Dr. Bolen introduces these patterns in the guise of eight archetypal gods, or personality types, with whom the reader will identify. From the authoritarian power-seeking gods (Zeus, Poseidon) to the gods of creativity (Apollo, Hephaestus) to the sensual Dionysus, Dr. Bolen shows men how to identify their ruling gods, how to decide which to cultivate and which to overcome, and how to tap thepwer of these enduring archetypes in order to enrich and strengthen their lives. She also stresses the importance of understanding which gods you are attracted to and which are compatible with your expectations, uncovers the origins of the often-difficult father-son relationship, and explores society's deep conflict between nurturing behavior and the need to foster masculinity. In Gods in Everyman Dr. Bolen presents us with a compassionate and lucid male psychology that will help all men and women to better understand themselves and their relationships with their fathers, their sons, their brothers, and their lovers.
