Produktbeschreibung

Perfect for anyone ready to explore their deepest self, this book helps us understand why it can be so tricky to do this work of self-healing. Written in plain English, including real-life examples by Jill Loree and Scott Wisler, Doing the Work arms spiritual seekers with the tools needed to take on this task, which is arguably the most satisfying thing a person can do with their life.

From Chapter 12: "...But "doing the work" does not mean "being all better". It means being able to be with what's actually here right now. It means not acting out our negativity on other people. Rather, we work to understand what drives us, and then slowly and gently turn our ship around.

To do this, we are going to need to start feeling what we feel. We will need to start watching ourselves in action, and this may be uncomfortable. That's one reason we so often disconnect from ourselves-there's stuff going on in us we don't want to know about...

This is what makes this particular path such a tough one. We must start to feel and see what we have not been willing or able to feel or see until now. For there's nothing we can avoid if we want to transform our Lower Self and learn to live from our divine essence.

We must come to know how we are blocking our own light. We must realize that no one else is doing anything to us-we are doing it to ourselves. Also, we must come to realize we are the only ones who can free ourselves from our self-made prisons...

Our work is to use every crappy thing that raises an Emotional Reaction up from our depths as fertilizer for great growth and healing. Every crappy thing."

Autorenporträt

A neatnik with a ready sense of humor, Jill Loree's first job as a root-beer-stand carhop in northern Wisconsin was an early sign that things could only get better.

She would go on to throw pizzas and bartend while in college, before discovering that the sweet spot of her 30-year sales-and-marketing career would be in business-to-business advertising. A true Gemini, she has a degree in chemistry and a flair for writing. Her brain fires on both the left and right sides.

That said, her real passion in life has been her spiritual path. Raised in the Lutheran faith, she became a more deeply spiritual person in the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous, a spiritual recovery program, starting in 1989. In 1997, she was introduced to the wisdom of the Pathwork, which she describes as "having walked through the doorway of a fourth step and found the whole library."

She completed four years of Pathwork Helpership training in 2007 followed by four years of apprenticing and discernment before stepping into her full Helpership in 2011. She has been a teacher in the Transformation Program offered at Sevenoaks Retreat Center in Madison, Virginia, operated by Mid-Atlantic Pathwork, where she also led marketing activities for over two years and served on the Board of Trustees.

In 2012, Jill completed four years of kabbalah training in a course called the Soul's Journey, achieving certification for hands-on healing using the energies embodied in the tree of life.

Not bad for a former pom-pom squad captain who once played Dolly in Hello Dolly! She is now the proud mom of two adult children, Charlie and Jackson, who were born and raised in Atlanta. Jill Loree is delighted to be married to Scott Wisler, but continues to use her middle name as her last (it's pronounced loh-REE). In her spare time she enjoys reading, writing, yoga, golf, skiing and hiking, especially in the mountains.

In 2014, she consciously decoupled from the corporate world and is now dedicating her life to writing and teaching about spirituality, personal healing and self-discovery.
