Everywhere we look we see wounded people, hurt by their childhood, by their relationships, by the cultural milieu in which they live. Increasing numbers seek psychiatric help, alternative therapies, healing, and encounter groups. However, valuable though such work has proved to be, it has tended to lack concern for the spiritual dimension of the human experience - the realm of the soul.
Many of us suffer from fractured souls, a circumstance brought about by the very nature of our lives. Fragments of our souls are lost or damaged through painful relationships, bereavement, accident, or loss of faith. All of these causes are examined in this book, and ways of coming to terms with them through the healing wisdom of the Grail story are set forward in a straightforward way. Avoiding psychological jargon and techniques Healing the Wounded King by John Matthews offers a new and powerful way of coming to terms with the wounded soul, and of finding healing for it.
John Matthews has been a full time writer since 1980 and has produced over one hundred books on myth, faery, the Arthurian Legends and Grail Studies, as well as short stories, a volume of poetry and several successful children’s books.
