Abstract "Dialogues with Michael Eigen spans twenty years of diverse interviews and interactions with the acclaimed psychologist Michael Eigen published together for the first time, including interlocutors from Italy, Spain, Portugal, Argentina, Sweden, Israel and the United States. This book explores the importance of soul reveries, psychoanalytic 'prayers' and cultivation of psychoanalytic 'faith' in Eigen's work. The dialogues lay out Eigen's privileging of emotions as messengers in need of recognition, as welcoming inner gestures for incubation enabling a deep vitalizing contact of being with oneself and others. Eigen reminds us that struggling with one's personality remains a life-long task, exposing us to various existential sufferings, agonies, traumas and losses in need of soul confession, if not analytic prayer. The book seeks to help readers find, touch, and work with emotional realities a little better and support a growing intimate, creative relation to ourselves. The rich explorations of the interviews and interactions with Eigen help contribute to further appreciation of our experiential life and worlds it opens. Building on his work on mind-body-soul connections, Dialogues with Michael Eigen is an essential book for anyone interested in the spiritual side of psychoanalysis"-- Provided by publisher.
