What does it really mean to be a grown up in today’s world? We assume that once we “get it together” with the right job, marry the right person, have children, and buy a home, all is settled and well. But adulthood presents varying levels of growth, and is rarely the respite of stability we expected. Turbulent emotional shifts can take place anywhere between the age of thirty-five and seventy when we question the choices we’ve made, realize our limitations, and feel stuck— commonly known as the “midlife crisis.” Jungian psycho-analyst James Hollis believes it is only in the second half of life that we can truly come to know who we are and thus create a life that has meaning. In Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life , Hollis explores the ways we can grow and evolve to fully become ourselves when the traditional roles of adulthood aren’t quite working for us, revealing a new way of uncovering and embracing our authentic selves. Offering wisdom to anyone facing a career that no longer seems fulfilling, a long-term relationship that has shifted, or family transitions that raise issues of aging and mortality, Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life provides a reassuring message and a crucial bridge across this critical passage of adult development.

James Hollis ve své knize zkoumá roli mytologémů, základních motivů a stavebních prvků mýtů v lidském životě. Tyto mytologémy a celé mýty jsou neoddělitelnou součástí našeho bytí, ať už si to uvědomujeme, nebo ne. Projevují se jako bolestivé formy a symptomy, když jsou prožívány jako nevědomé příběhy, ale mohou také přinášet pozitivní duševní hodnoty, pokud je prožíváme vědomě. Hollis ukazuje, jak nevědomé mytologické příběhy ovlivňují naše životy a co se stane, když je začneme vědomě integrovat. Když překonáme strach a odpor našeho omezeného vědomí a uvědomíme si, jaké příběhy v nás žijí, zjistíme, že náš život má hlubší význam a je mnohem zajímavější, než jsme si mysleli. I když se může zdát, že zjištění, že náš příběh je pro nás zajímavý, je skromnou útěchou, Hollis tvrdí, že je to jeden z nejdůležitějších poznatků, které můžeme učinit. Uvědomění si těchto příběhů nám vrací schopnost úžasu, kterou jsme měli v dětství. Podle autora bychom měli znovu navázat spojení s energiemi mytologických a náboženských obrazů a vědomě utvářet svůj život ve spolupráci s těmito archetypálními silami.
