A Poetic and Transformative Journey to Inner Peace, Now Accessible to English Readers Worldwide This poetic yet pragmatic book guides you to rediscover yourself as a living Noah's Ark—a three-dimensional volume of conscious presence, stable and vast enough to actively embrace and support each facet of your being. Adelheid Oesch, a seasoned counselor, teacher, and founder of 'L'Atelier du Dialogue Intérieur' (Voice Dialogue Workshop) in Lausanne, Switzerland, masterfully weaves together the spiritual wisdom of the world with the ground-breaking insights of 'Voice Dialogue' psychology. With expertise shaped by extensive training with pioneers Dr. Hal Stone and Dr. Sidra Stone, she illuminates a path to cultivate an intimate, non-judgmental engagement with your inner persons—the sensations, emotions, images, and thoughts that shape your experience. As you follow the author's odyssey, you'll migrate from a limiting "two-dimensional" consciousness based on duality and opposition, towards an integrated "three-dimensional" body-heart-mind awareness. This spacious "Ark" of Self becomes a tender womb, a sacred refuge where every aspect of your being can feel welcomed, held dear, and reborn. The Ark Within empowers you to uplift your understanding into lived experience. By establishing yourself as a conscious holding environment for your "Inner Family of Selves", you'll unravel the roots of suffering and liberate your capacity for faith, hope, and love. Whether you're seeking personal healing and transformation or working to support others on their journey, this rare gem offers a profound source of inspiration that has already empowered innumerable readers to create lasting change in their lives. Praise for The Ark Within “The Ark Within is a magical, mystical, beautifully balanced journey of the spirit. The evocative narrative, combined with practical exercises in Volume II, makes this book an invaluable guide for anyone who has embarked on the journey of a spirit-infused life.” Hal and Sidra Stone Ph.D. “The voyage of The Ark Within begins and ends with the meeting of the sensitive “Inner Child” that each one of us carries inside. In becoming our own Friend and neighbor, we will heal our capacity to relate and create bonds that are not of neediness and dependency, but of sharing and generosity.” Marie de Hennezel “The Ark Within is an excellent guide to remedy inner conflict. It supports ever-deeper levels of insight. It will help many people understand themselves and heal so much unnecessary suffering in their lives.” Richard Moss, M.D. “The author guides us inward, into “our true homeland.” She inspires us to live vibrant, conscious, and reconciled lives. She writes with candor, and uncompromising tenderness, about the fulfillment of an essential paradigm shift: outer wisdom must become inner wisdom.” Hedy Schleifer MA LMHC
