Publisher's Synopsis
"Courage and Compassion: Following Dorothy" tells the story of the transformation of Dorothy of OZ and her three companions as they travel the yellow brick road. Dorothy energizes the seven major chakras and develops the related archetypes of the heroic journey; orphan, wanderer (Scarecrow), martyr (Tin Man), warrior (Lion) and magician until she is able to confront the negative ego in the form of the wicked witch of the west, her worst fear. After defeating fear with love she can return home, transformed, with a new understanding of her gifts. This book is a daring interweaving of ancient and modern wisdom, an updated analysis of a beloved story which inspires the reader to go on their own heroic journey in order to unite with the true self. It is a fresh, new way to approach the pathways of heart, mind, body and soul. This finely interwoven tapestry of psychological and spiritual awakening comes from an author who uses her deep life experiences as teacher and mind/body/energy psychotherapist to empower all.
