Living Your Unlived Life

COPING WITH UNREALIZED DREAMS AND FULFILLING YOUR PURPOSE IN THE SECOND HALF OF LIFE

In this book, therapist Robert A Johnson, writing with longtime collaborator and fellow Jungian psychologist Jerry M Ruhl, offers a simple but transformational premise: Our abandoned, unrealized, or underdeveloped talents, when they are not fully integrated into our lives, can become profoundly troublesome in midlife, leading us to depression, suddenly hating our spouses, our jobs, or even our lives. When our unlived lives are brought to consciousness, however, they can become the fuel tat can propel us beyond our limitations - even if our outer circumstances cannot always be visibly altered.
