Title:

Inner Work is the Hero’s Journey: Mythic Interpretations of Holotropic Breathwork

Abstract:

Individuals engaging their psyches through depth exploration act heroically. This process of individuation is arduous and provokes unceasing variations of issues for resolution. Success is not quick, easy, or assured, but this personal dedication to a fully manifested life often leads to a higher level of consciousness and a sense of meaning.

Myths worldwide narrate imaginal stories of cultural heroes who discover their deepest truths.

It takes a hero’s courage to make decisions, even everyday ones, and none is more profound than that of embracing experiential, psychic exploration. Heroic inner workers nurture manifesting spirits through psychological rebirths.

From personal experience, few deep healing modalities upwell mythic imagery for their psychic insights and personal truths as successfully as Holotropic Breathwork. The most profound trauma revealed is often that from birth itself, which is too often compounded by societal unconsciousness.

The survival of endangered life forms on our beautiful, blue water planet rests on this modern hero’s journey of personal exploration. Deep psychic wounds must be healed. If we are to prohibit the use of weapons of mass destruction, we must act consciously individually and collectively.

Unconsciousness is historically manipulated for personal political power by “Dark Numinosity” archetypes [evil exploiters of humans by individuals who have a profound understanding of human psychology, with its inherent spirituality]. Demanding loyalty, promising complete fulfillment, rigidifying society into a militarized worldview, offering quasi-religious rituals and ceremonies, and producing transcendent experiences, they infect the social body with psychic epidemics that lead to

wholesale death and destruction. Thwarting this predatory impetus to slaughter may very well depend upon individuals who embrace inner work, and with gained consciousness inform their fellow humans of psychologically healthier courses of action.

Engaging inner work is the modern hero’s journey, and it manifests a life blessed with meaning. This is our time, self destruction our peril, and survival of all living species our imperative.

Reference Section

This section hosts references to many works, articles, and links that are useful to you researching inner work, depth psychology, and mythology... all as it relates to your life’s meaning.

Two compilations that are of significant importance to students, writers, and scholars are those that I created by searching the indexes of the works by Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung, respectively: The Complete Psychological Works of Sigmund Freud and The Collected Works of C. G. Jung. In these compilations, I searched each index of all these volumes for the subjects “myth” and “mythology.” You will be intrigued, as others have been, on the range of discussions these psychoanalytic and

analytical psychology pioneers had to say on these two topics.

Employment Psychology Section

This section also offers exercises and articles related to you knowing the answers to two crucial questions: “Who are you?” and “What is your purpose?” Those who know themselves are most generally happy, fulfilled, and successful.

Fundamental to you finding meaning in your life, you will need to know your own Primal Job Preferences. These are the essential, personal characteristics that determine what you want in a job, the absence of which only creates unhappiness and frustration... even if the job is inherently the kind of work that you would like to do. As an example, do you want to work “alone” or in a “group,” or do you want to work “at night” or “during the day?” Perhaps you took a night job, when no other was offered. If you are a day person, you will remember how difficult it was to “be in that world.”

The Primal Job Preferences exercise is a crucial step in you knowing what gives your life meaning and allowing your soul to sing. Download the Primal Job Preferences exercise and begin the adventure of your life.
