Understanding the Psychology of Joy
Ecstasy was once considered a divine gift, one that could lift mortals out of ordinary reality and into a higher world. But because Western culture has systematically repressed this ecstatic human impulse, we are unable to truly experience its transformative power.
Johnson penetrates the surface of modern life to reveal the ancient dynamics of our humanity, pointing out practical means for achieving a healthy expression of our true inner selves. Through dreams, rituals and celebrations, he shows us how to return to these original life-giving principles and restore inner harmony.
