Description : Spiritual emergencies can be triggered by many things: loss of faith or a loved one, intense spiritual practices, even childbirth. Too often these spiritual crises or 'dark nights of the soul' are not recognized for what they are, but seen simply as psychosis, depression or mental breakdown. The spiritual component of these experiences are ignored. Tragically, this cuts off any possibility of integrating the lessons these events can bring.
Yet when spiritual crises are understood and managed, they offer enormous potential for growth and fulfilment. In this guide for mental health professionals, pastoral care specialists, and people going through spiritual crisis or their caregivers, you will find:
A clear summary of recent psychological research of the last twenty years
Patterns of spiritual crises through the ages: St Teresa of Avila, Carl Jung and Eckhart Tolle among others
The Three Key Phases for Moving Successfully Through Spiritual Emergency
Practical, life-saving guidance for those experiencing spiritual emergency of for those caring for them.
