Jeannette M. Gagan’s “Journeying: Where Shamanism and Psychology Meet” presents fascinating insights into the future of psychology

Dr. Jeannette M. Gagan has published her book Journeying: Where Shamanism and Psychology Meet, which presents the common grounds between shamanism and psychology and their combined healing power.

The book explores how journeying, for example, provides some psychotherapeutics benefits. It aims to help readers understand both the similarities between psychology and shamanism and how journeying can advance the psychological process of healing wounds.

It will be of particular interest to anyone who practices healing including seekers and practitioners.

Here’s what some of the thought-leaders in the field of psychology are saying about the book:

Larry G. Peters, PhD, psychologist, ethnologist, and professor:

“Impressive in scope and depth, this text provides a new way of looking at the origins of psychotherapy and an understanding of shamanic healing in terms that are relevant to contemporary culture and psychology.”

Larry Dossey, MD, author of Prayer Is Good Medicine:

“A landmark application of (shamanic) wisdom to early developmental wounding where the ills of society begin. Anyone interested in the future of psychology should read this book.”

Sandra Ingerman, MA, author of Soul Retrieval, Mending the Fragmented Self:

“Shamans in indigenous cultures were and are also the psychologists of the community. In our culture we have split the roles. It’s time to marry the system together, and Jeannette Gagan, through her expertise, shows us how.”

The book can now be purchased via our online bookstore.
