This text explores spirituality and its relationship to mental health.
It emphasizes the need to look inward and listen to the messages which
are channelled through our beings, rather than dismiss these
experiences as some form of "disorder". Part One considers
spirituality as a reflection of the process of change. A brief
overview of the contemporary history of spiritual inquiry in the field
of mental health is provided. Part Two considers spirituality as a
reflection of the process of meaning making. Part Three considers
spirituality in terms of different forms of journey, including a
consideration of the traditional concept of pilgrimage. Part Four
considers the potential for healing that lies within even the most
terrifying forms of madness. The book then concludes with a suggestion
of the power of "waiting" and the rewards obtained by the careful,
compassionate practice of life.
