How do you catch a shadow?

In his book Emotional Transmutation, Willem Kolste presents a powerful method for transforming the psyche. This method bypasses the surface of the mind and directly modifies the core engines that drive the personality. By targeting deep structures within the subconscious, transmutation reshapes the inner workings of the psyche, paving the way for profound personal growth.

Drawing upon his experience as a contemplative practitioner, Kolste describes an approach that combines insights from multiple traditions. He shows how a basic method can be adapted to alter two fundamental forces within the psyche: aspects and samskaras. The imagination can harness pure meaning to transform raw emotion, and solidified patterns of thinking can likewise be dismantled.

Emotional Transmutation guides its readers through the process of turning darkness into light. Both the novice and the experienced contemplative will find the techniques in this book invaluable.
