Bones: A Building-Block Collection of 19 Fundamental Spiritual Teachings
Maybe our struggles aren’t about what’s happening to us—but what’s happening within us?
Bones is a powerful collection of spiritual teachings from The Pathwork Guide that goes straight to the core of human experience. Rather than offering surface-level inspiration, this book uncovers the hidden inner structures—emotional patterns, unconscious beliefs and protective defenses—that quietly shape our lives.
With clarity and depth, these teachings explore how we avoid feelings, create false identities, repeat painful patterns, and resist the very growth we long for. You’ll discover how fear, pride, and self-will keep us stuck… how childhood wounds replay in adult relationships… and how unconscious “images” and inner contradictions block fulfillment.
But this isn’t just about insight—it’s about transformation.
Bones offers a practical path for real change. As we do, something shifts.
Because the framework of our lives is built from within. When we change there, we change everything.
