The Stages of LASTING Transformation
Just like every journey, your experience in reading and growing through LASTING Transformation moves through two distinct stages.
Stage One: Life-Lesson Therapy
Stage on focuses on reversing negative patterns of behavior that cause pain and problems in relationships. During this first stage the work centers on strengthening our sense of self and refining our personality, made up of our body, feelings, and mind. These chapters are based on a proven formula for communicating clearly with ourselves and others as we learn our life lessons. In the process, we gain a more profound understanding of how relationships work, and we develop the skills to move from behavioral change to lasting transformation. As we become more self-aware, self-loving, and able to navigate in our relationships in a healthy and conscious way, we enter the next stage of the journey.
Stage Two: Soul-Wisdom Therapy
involves learning techniques for listening within, which open us to experience the deeper spiritual realms of consciousness—those that are home to the soul and to that inner source of wisdom within each of us—the Inner Self. This Self-awareness helps us develop soul-wisdom, which leads to a stronger sense of self and a deeper connection with the Inner Self. This, in turn, often evokes a desire to be of service in helping to repair our world.
This book is a transpersonal guidebook. The term transpersonal, coined by Abraham Maslow, PhD, and Stanislav Grof, MD, refers to a human being as more than the personality. According to Maslow, we are able to transcend the personality and experience the higher spiritual planes of consciousness beyond the personality. LASTING Transformation gives you the tools to reach these higher planes.
Transpersonal Psychology is the psychological modality that goes beyond traditional and humanistic psychology and incorporates the spiritual dimension of personal growth. This alignment of the mind, body, and spirit creates a sense of wholeness that can result in lasting transformation. In addition, as we work toward such personal wholeness, our relationships tend to expand to include a deep concern for each other and the planet.
Today, more than ever, there is a desperate need to repair our world. In order for society to change, and to minimize conflict by managing how we deal with the stress in our world, we need to transform how we conduct our relationships, not only with ourselves and with each other, but also with our communities, with other societies, and with the planet itself. May this book be a guide for you on your journey toward this lasting transformation.
