About this book

If we could take the most intense and penetrating look into our psyche and strip away the layers, what would we find at our very core? Could we find the key to psychic heath that unlocks our full creativity and potential? Working with hundreds of people around the world, therapist and author Shai Tubali came to realize that it was power that drove the human psyche: the primal urge for power, the loss of power, and the entangled and confused desires to regain power in our lives. Tubali created 'psycho-transformative processes' to enable the men and women he worked with to uncover these hardest, hidden and most denied parts of the self, and then guided them to transform these parts into a source of true, revitalizing inner power. The Journey to Inner Power sets the reader on this challenging new path to self-knowledge and self-liberation.

Shai Tubali's "The Journey to Inner Power" offers a profound exploration into the human psyche, positing that the primal urge for power, its loss, and the desire to regain it are central drivers of our inner lives. Through his unique 'psycho-transformative processes,' Tubali guides readers to confront and strip away layers of the self, uncovering hidden and denied parts. The ultimate goal is to transform these deeply seated aspects into a revitalizing source of authentic inner power. This challenging path promises self-knowledge, self-liberation, and the unlocking of one's full creativity and potential.

At our very core, we find not weakness, but the primal urge for power, waiting to be reclaimed.

Key themes

The Primal Urge for Power
This theme posits that the fundamental drive within the human psyche is an inherent need for power, not necessarily dominance over others, but as an internal force of agency and being. The book explores how this primal urge can become lost, confused, or misdirected, leading to psychic distress and unfulfilled potential.
Self-Knowledge and Uncovering Hidden Parts
A central theme is the necessity of deep introspection and confronting the 'hardest, hidden and most denied parts of the self.' This process of self-knowledge is presented as a prerequisite for true transformation and liberation, requiring courage and an unflinching look at one's inner landscape.
Transformation and Psychic Health
The book emphasizes that the ultimate goal of the journey is not just discovery, but profound transformation. By engaging with the 'psycho-transformative processes,' the reader is guided to integrate and transmute previously problematic or denied aspects of the self into a source of 'true, revitalizing inner power,' leading to holistic psychic health.
