Out of Darkness into the Light A Journey of Inner Healing [Paperback]

A compelling account of the journey from severe depression, guilt, and near alcoholism to a true healing of the mind and spirit—from a bestselling author and noted psychiatrist

If there is hope for one like me, who thought that he was beyond all help, and who believed he had more guilt, more shame, and a greater feeling of inadequacy than anyone else in the world, then rest assured that there is hope for you.

Millions of men and women have had their lives transformed by Dr. Gerald Jampolsky's pioneering work in the field of attitudinal healing and by his bestsellersLove Is Letting Go of Fear, Goodbye to Guilt, andTeach Only Love. In his most important book, Dr. Jampolsky tells his own deeply moving story of inner struggle and personal transformation.

As we share the story of his passage from sorrow to joy, Dr. Jampolsky sheds new light on the path to personal happiness, on letting go of fear and guilt, and on escaping the Fifty Ego Defenses that keep us in darkness. Here is a book of advice and inspiration from a man who has been there and back—a road map to guide you to a life of peace, fulfillment, and lasting hapiness.

A life-enhancing book written from the only perspective Gerry Jampolsky knows—total honesty and unconditional love. I loved every page. —Wayne Dyer, author ofYour Erroneous ZonesWhat is this cancer inside me?
The fiery anger that lingers,
In its thin disguise …
The coldness and the brittleness
That comes from my pores
At a moment’s notice.
 
Could it all be fear,
And nothing but fear?
Is there no roadmap
That can lead me to peace
And freedom?
 
Can I really feel
Whole and at one
By simply crossing
The bridge of forgiveness?
 
Why does something
That seems so simple
Bring out my greatest
Resistance?
 
Obstacles, obstacles,l3!
