Is healing a matter of solving a problem, curing a sickness, or making our wounds disappear? âIn my experience,â writes depth psychotherapist and mindfulness teacher Matt Licata, âtrue 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.â 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 lifeâs hardship, but instead welcomes all experience as part of the soulâs majestic vastness. âWhile there is a part of us that very genuinely wishes to heal, awaken, and transform,â writes Dr. Licata, âthere is a lesser known, hidden part invested in maintaining things the way they are.â 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 youâve found yourself wondering why years or even decades of self-improvement, meditation, prayer, or therapy hasnât resulted in a feeling of wholeness or completeness, you may be ready to enter A Healing Space.
