The Deep Heart

Our Portal to Presence

More about the book

The great human quest is to discover who we truly are, a journey that transforms our lives and those around us. In this work, spiritual teacher and psychotherapist Dr. John J. Prendergast invites us on an inner pilgrimage, using the heart as a gateway to our deepest psychological and spiritual essence. The "deep heart" refers to our heart center, a subtle space of emotional sensitivity, relational intimacy, profound knowing, and unconditional love. Prendergast notes that this area is where we experience kindness and gratitude, but also emotional wounds. He emphasizes that the heart is what we protect most yet yearn to open. Throughout the text, Prendergast skillfully merges the insights of psychotherapy with an expansive, embodied path to liberation, addressing both the joys and challenges of each approach with the compassion of a seasoned guide. This experiential guide encourages you to connect with your inherent wisdom, love, and wholeness as you explore the deep heart. Through meditative inquiries, poignant stories, and reflections from Prendergast's work with students and clients, you'll learn to open your heart, confront limiting beliefs, and uncover your true nature.
