Publisher's Summary

A gifted teacher explores how both hardship and joy can lead us back to the sacredness of ordinary life.

Is healing a matter of solving a problem, curing a sickness, or making our wounds disappear? 'In my experience,' states depth psychotherapist and meditation teacher Matt Licata, 'true healing is not a state where we become liberated from uncomfortable feelings, but one in which we are free and flexible to welcome our complete experience - whether happy or difficult - more fully.' With A Healing Space, Dr Licata invites us to explore a more vital sense of wellness - one that does not put us in opposition to life's hardship, but instead welcomes all experience as part of the soul's majestic vastness.

'While there is a part of us that very genuinely wishes to heal, awaken, and transform,' states Dr. Licata, 'there is a lesser known, hidden part invested in maintaining things the way they are.' Through metaphors and teachings from diverse traditions such as alchemy, neuroscience, mindfulness, contemplative spirituality, Buddhism and depth psychology, he illuminates the spiritual journey with profound subtlety and deep insight. If you've found yourself wondering why years or even decades of self-improvement, meditation, prayer or therapy hasn't resulted in a feeling of wholeness or completeness, you may be ready to try A Healing Space.

Amazing!

This audiobook was exactly what I needed (and didn’t realize I needed so much until I listened to it). Beautifully performed as well! I’ll be listening to this one again.

Such an amazing book

I really love this book. I listen to it while I am walking. I feel so peaceful and zen.

How can someone have a lovely voice like that? It's just like earing the voice of Kate Beckinsale the actress.

At first I thought it was her.

I don't understand everything about what she says. But I feel so much better than before.

I don't think that I am going to listen to a particular part of the book. I am probably going to listen to the entire book then I will start it again soon.

What an amazing book. A powerful book for everyone. One book can make a difference.

Intellectual gymnastics

I have no doubt the author has an in depth knowledge of helping others heal. The kaleidoscope of clinical terms and advanced vocabulary in this book make the concepts difficult to access. My impression of this book is a therapist guide to the pathways of healing rather than inspirational reading for the general public.
