Details: ‘Rashna Imhasly, deeply rooted in Indian mythology and yoga traditions and well versed in the psychotherapy and psychology of Swiss psychiatrist C.G. Jung, illuminates the powerful bridges between these realms... In Courage to Be You, she brings these insights together with clarity and compassion, offering readers a path toward inner healing, identity, and wholeness in a rapidly changing India.’—Dr. Theodor Abt, Jungian Psychologist
When living authentically risks everything you’ve been taught to value, how do you move forward? Courage to Be You tells the intertwined stories of Amit and Najib, a gay couple for whom ‘coming out’ means confronting their families on not only their sexual identity, but also their religious and social differences—Najib is Amit’s employee. Rajeshwari, Amit’s childhood friend, is a woman struggling to reclaim her identity from a childhood trauma of sexual abuse. Their parallel journeys, set against the backdrop of a society where conformity is rewarded and individuality often suppressed, offer readers not only a path to emotional healing and self-understanding but also practical tools from Jungian psychology and chakra healing to reclaim autonomy and inner peace.
Through conversations with their therapist, Amit and Rajeshwari work through deeply rooted societal conditioning and emotional blockages. By addressing the mind-body connection through chakra healing and integrating Jungian concepts like the ‘shadow self’ and individuation, the book equips readers to confront their inner conflicts and begin a journey towards self-discovery.
