Klappentext

How can the 2nd half of life become a rewarding and enchanting adventure with zest and esprit? How can your life dream and the dream that LIFE has of you come true? How can this be accomplished, despite all the challenges that life and aging present?
70plus psychotherapist Margrit E. Haid shows in an easy-to-understand way and in a colourful sequence of topics, how the findings of psychotherapy offer inspiring, enriching, unconventional and encouraging answers to the questions posed above. In our highly complex time, it is imperative to better understand and consider the interplay of body, mind, soul, and spirit including the unconscious. Therefore, particular emphasis is placed on the significance of its integration and on the nocturnal dream as an evolutionary map. With it, also the immense creative capacity inherent in every human being and willpower are of great importance. Integrating and embracing all these areas are crucial for an empowering and deeply satisfying 2nd half of life, - however challenging it may be.
