About this series

Our inner worlds are unique to us, complex, rich, and vast.

This workbook is designed for the individual, group, or class to step behind self-image and behold the many psychological facets and dimensions that make up his or her human being. These workshops are for the true explorers of human nature, for those who seek to understand the underpinnings of who they are deep within, beyond social programming. This book can also be used as a resource for general information.

Only when we peer into ourselves and see what is going on in there can we begin to notice and appreciate the complex kaleidoscopic design that shapes our personality. In this, it becomes apparent that what we refer to as "I" is not by any means simplistic. Everyone is complicated and so unique that no outer world advice, way, philosophy, or religion can be one hundred percent right for anyone. And yet, the ambiguity of our own complexity often drives us outward to adopt other people's ideas, idioms, philosophies, or religions that at least, in part, resonate with who we think we are.

Our struggle to survive in the world and to find an acceptable avenue of self-expression gives rise to various aspects of our personality, such as the Judge, the Warrior, the Nurturer, and many more. These aspects, like people in a village, collide, collude and vie for attention, and create internal conflict. And sometimes, they collaborate and lead us to victory. When we get stuck in one of these aspects, such as the Inner Victim, Martyr, or Skeptic, we can feel chronically depressed or anxious. However, like the crystal with many facets, we can perceive life through any inner aspect we choose, such as the Inner Sage, Healer, or Hero.

The goal of this workbook it to help you explore your inner aspects and attune them to each other, in alignment with your Quintessential Self (the core of who you are) that you can become your potential in all its glory.

Author

Susan D. Kalior

        Susan was born in Seattle, WA.. Her first profession was a psychotherapist treating those suffering from depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, substance abuse, sexual abuse, family violence, and severe mental illness. She employed therapies such as communication skill building, relaxation training, systematic desensitization, bioenergetics, and psychodrama. She has facilitated stress management, parenting, and self-discovery workshops that have aided in the psycho-spiritual healing of many. She has lectured on metaphysical and psychological topics, and been involved in various social activist pursuits.          Her education includes an M.A. in Ed. in Counseling/Human Relations and Behavior (NAU), a B.S. in Sociology (ASU), and ten months of psycholog-ical and metaphysical training in a Tibetan community.          Susan writes entertaining books steeped in psychology, sociology, and metaphysics in genres such as visionary fiction, dark fantasy, horror, and romance. All her books are designed to facilitate personal growth and transformation.         In her words: I love to sing, meditate, and play in nature. I love fairy tales, going outside the box, and reading between the lines. I strive to see what is often missed, and to not miss what can't be seen. There is such a life out there, and in there—beyond all perception! So I close my eyes, feel my inner rhythm, and jump off the cliff of convention. And when I land, though I might be quaking in my boots, I gather my courage and go exploring.         Through travel, study, and work, I've gained a rich awareness of cultural differences among people and their psychosocial struggles. I have discovered that oppression often results from the unexamined adoption of outside perceptions. The healing always has been in the individual's stamina to expel outside perceptions of self and constructively exert one's unique core being into the world. I am driven to facilitate expanded awareness that people may separate who they are from who they are told to be. Embracing personal power by loving our unique selves in our strengths and weaknesses . . . forever—is a key to joyous living. My motto is: Trust your story. Live the Mystery..
