The Mysterious Forest: How Dialogue with the Unconscious Helps to Escape Life's Deadlock

All of us face the feeling of stagnation, lack of progress, or prospects in life. Sometimes this happens because we do not see clear ways to move forward or achieve our goals, experience professional dissatisfaction, difficulties in relationships, or feel... overwhelming fatigue from the monotony and predictability of everyday life. And sometimes we realize that we have become prisoners of our own experiences and live as if by inertia, following others' rules and expectations. How can we escape from life's deadlock? Jungian psychologist Ekaterina Davydova suggests abandoning habitual ways of thinking and venturing into the mysterious forest of the unconscious. Through examples from her own professional experience and works of popular and classical culture, she explains how to learn to listen to our intuition, trust our dreams, and tap into the potential of the irrational. This book will help readers establish a connection with their unconscious to find solutions to problems that seemed unattainable just recently.
