«Meetings with the Soul. The Method of Active Imagination by Carl Gustav Jung» — this is a book about working with the unconscious in the framework of analytical psychology. Barbara Hanna thoroughly examines the method of active imagination associated with the name of Carl Gustav Jung and shows how through inner dialogue a person can more attentively explore images, experiences, and hidden mental processes. The book will be of interest to those who want to gain a deeper understanding of the Jungian approach and figure out how one of its key methods is organized. The text helps to form a clear understanding of the topic and to determine whether such reading is suitable for a serious acquaintance with depth psychology.
At the center of attention is active imagination as an important part of Jungian analytical psychology. Barbara Hanna writes about how this approach is connected to the unconscious and why it occupies a significant place in the study of inner experience. Jung did not leave a separate detailed manual on this method, and Hanna's book is often considered an attempt to explain the principle itself, its possibilities, and limitations in detail.
