- Synopsis
- We all carry a vast inventory of abandoned, unrealized, or underdeveloped talents. These do not just "go away" through underuse or by tossing them off. Instead they go underground and become troublesome - sometimes tormenting - as we grow older. In Living Your Unlived Life, using warmth, humour, and elegant simplicity, the renowned therapist Robert A. Johnson, writing with long-time collaborator and fellow Jungian psychologist Jerry M. Ruhl, helps us understand our own heritage of unlived life - and how it must be examined and transformed if we are to make peace with ourselves and others in middle age and beyond. The authors show how to: bull; identify those unfulfilled hopes, yearnings, or needs that have gone "underground" bull; discover how we unconsciously burden others - friends, spouses, co-workers - with our unlived hopes bull; create new life options and unlock hidden talents bull; transform fruitless fantasies or "silly" dreams into tools for inner growth bull; start truly living in the present moment
