Produktbeschreibung

J. E. Ketchel's foray into the world of the unconscious continues in Place of No Pity, Volume 4 of the Recapitulation Diaries. Where she went is not on any map, there are no directions, for it is a journey into the unknown. In her search for knowledge the fearless Ms. Ketchel was undaunted by what she encountered, always aware of the importance of keeping one foot in reality no matter where the journey took her. An intrepid traveler, she carried on the total dismantling of a self and a life that no longer served her while she simultaneously constructed a new self and a new life based on her own discoveries of what life could and should be. We cannot help but cheer her on. How many survivors of sexual abuse could find anything positive in their experience? As Ms. Ketchel contemplates in Place of No Pity: "Without my consent, sexual abuse was imposed on me and determined the kind of life I would lead. I have been a sexually abused person my entire life; I see that now. I understand that it has defined and controlled me on so many levels, but that it has also gotten me where I am now. Sexual abuse has provided the strong backbone of my existence too, so I must respect it rather than hate it. I must extricate from it the inherent good strengths and advantages that such a life afforded me and integrate them into who I am becoming, for though I suffered greatly I invariably gained a great deal as well." J. E. Ketchel takes us with her into the depths of her soul, going where few have dared to tread. With honesty, intelligence, and a thoroughly engaging manner she tells us her story, joining the ranks of the best diarists, the most daring explorers of the unconscious, and the vast legions of travelers into the unknown. Without attachment or self-importance she arrives on the verge of new life having discovered that a path of compassion and love is the only path worth pursuing. In Place of No Pity, J. E. Ketchel continues her fearless search for independence from her past and freedom from her deepest fears, a most difficult and a most rewarding task. In The Recapitulation Diaries, the ancient shamanic practice of recapitulation is presented for its value as a means of healing from Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), as well as a process offering profound spiritual exploration and transformation. It was introduced to Ms. Ketchel by a psychotherapist and practitioner of Carlos Castaneda's Tensegrity, who recognized the benefits that recapitulation could have in a clinical setting. During her three-year-long recapitulation, Ms. Ketchel proved his hunch to be more than true. Recapitulation provided Ms. Ketchel with unique tools to face the challenges of an ever-deepening psychological journey into the deeper unconscious, a journey that few have dared to take. As her story unfolds the reader is offered a rare and intimate glimpse into the evolution of a human being willing to go the distance to fully heal from the deepest of traumas. Exquisitely written and deeply stirring, The Recapitulation Diaries are rewarding reading for anyone, but especially for those wishing to understand the unconscious and how it works, for those seeking a shamanic perspective for life's deepest issues, for those in search of healing and meaning, as well as for the professional at a loss for how to help those who suffer. Like many other ancient healing practices, handed down through generations of practitioners, recapitulation is imbued with the intent of the ancients. It is a powerful process, a pathway to a changed perception of the self and the world. As Ms. Ketchel's books underscore: the path to true freedom and real change lies within!
