Whether you are a clinician struggling to help your client´s, or an individual wanting to heal and grow, reading this book will profoundly change your perspective about the nature of resistance. This book was inspired by the author´s personal struggle to understand the meaning and value of her own resistance. Based in humanistic, existential, and transpersonal perspectives, this investigation paves the way for a more encompassing view of transformation and self-realization by taking us into the actual experience of resistance, mind, body, and spirit, from the participant perspective. This in-depth look at resistance includes the author´s model of transformation from an ego-driven, resistant state of consciousness, to a higher-self driven, open state of consciousness. Ultimately, resistance is revealed to be valuable as a guide in the healing process.
