Renate Daniel Book order

The Complex Theory developed by Carl Gustav Jung, along with his insights on emotions, imagination and the creative power of the psyche have paved the way for current research on the effects of placebos and the interactions between the psyche and the immune system. Jung's concept of the mind-body relationship helps overcome misconceptions about root causes, guilt, and blame. It is important to note that the prevention and treatment of physical diseases are impossible without embracing the human psyche, as exemplified by numerous case studies from psychotherapeutic practice that serve to illustrate the content of this book. Renate Daniel, M.D., a specialist in psychiatry, psychotherapy and psychoanalysis and Director of Programs at the C.G. Jung Institute in Zürich, has been a psychotherapist in private practice for many years. She is the -author of Taking the Fear Out of the Night - Coping with Nightmares (2016) and The Self - Quest for Meaning in a Changing World (2020) as well as numerous published articles.

Whoever engages in C.G. Jung's concept of the self will be confronted with questions relating to humanity, and concepts of God, the divine and faith. Jung deems it necessary to treat these topics on a psychological level because of the far-reaching implications they have on the way we live and relate to each other. But they also impact on ethical attitudes, ideologies, social processes and therapeutic models. Scientific evidence usually proves difficult. A certain open-mindedness towards this topic is expected on the part of the reader, and it would be helpful to embrace the ideas put forward 'without prejudice' for the moment. This book aims to help readers become more aware of their own ideas and convictions and how these may influence one's self-image and worldview.

Anyone who is plagued by nightmares night after night knows what a heavy burden these nocturnal apparitions represent: one is unable to resume sleep, often lies awake for a long time, and feels fearful, irritable or depressed the next day. What can help to take the fear out of the night? Understanding the message of nightmares is a first step toward relief. These energy-laden images can represent urgent questions stemming from the depth of the psyche. In this book, experienced Jungian analyst Renate Daniel demonstrates how one can succeed in finding appropriate answers to help understand and cope with nightmares.
