Thomas Moore
In this special twenty-fifth anniversary edition of Thomas Moore’s bestselling Care of the Soul, which includes a new introduction by the author, readers are presented with a revolutionary approach to thinking about daily life—everyday activities, events, problems, and creative opportunities—and a therapeutic lifestyle is proposed that focuses on looking more deeply into emotional problems and learning how to sense sacredness in ordinary things.Basing his writing on the ancient model of “care of the soul”—which provided a religious context for viewing the everyday events of life—Moore brings “care of the soul” into the twenty-first century. Promising to deepen and broaden the readers’ perspectives on their life experiences, Moore draws on his own life as a therapist practicing “care of the soul,” as well as his studies of the world’s religions and his work in music and art, to create this inspirational guide that examines the connections between spirituality and the problems of individuals and society.“Thoughtful, eloquent, inspiring.” —San Francisco Chronicle“I soulfully recommend it without reservation.” —John Bradshaw, author of Homecoming

"I absolutely love and appreciate Thomas Moore's take on the soul and bringing that into our life. I especially liked how he related myths (Greek) to our everyday life. His take on Narcissus really changed my perspective on narcissism. He also has a wonderful way of working with dreams, not so much trying to figure them out, but letting them have a life of their own, or viewing them like a painting. Some things we don't have answers for. This book has helped me to appreciate the mysteries that exist...and to let mystery exist without trying to solve it."
