"Ritual takes us beyond the psychological. It is a process of thinning the veils between the dimensions of the material world and those luminous realms lying within and beyond oneself. In Ritual, the ordinary becomes extraordinary, certainty becomes mystery, and potentialities become real possibilities " from inside Tending the Soul with Healing Ritual "Gay Wolff has given us a timely and currently much needed handbook of how to practice the wisdom of healing ritual in our modern context. Within, you will find a crystal clear and yet poetic style of writing, rich in mythic understanding, informative and very practical for developing your own capacity to learn and create rituals that transform your life, help you heal and evolve, and help others." C. Michael Smith, Ph.D. (Mikkal). Psychologist, shamanic teacher, and author of the best-selling classic, Jung and Shamanism in Dialogue "Gay Wolff 's elegantly expressed Tending the Soul With Healing Ritual is interactive, participatory and consciousness-raising. Its very original rituals wed theory to praxis, myth to ritual, and knowing to the body's heart sense of the world." Dennis Patrick Slattery, author of Riting Myth, Mythic Writing: Exploring Your Personal Myth and Bridge Work: Essays on Mythology, Literature and Psychology.
