As an INFP who was going through an "unhealthy" phase, I was tired of feeling like a victim.
I was already experiencing chronic pain, stress and anxiety, and I couldn't help wondering, "If I took a journey towards empowerment for a change, what would that look like?"
The first thing that came to my mind was Persephone, a character in Greek mythology and a female INFP who is kidnapped to the underworld and learns to be the queen of it all. She becomes a person who successfully unites light and dark.
I came to appreciate that as an INFP, I also have my own mythical journey towards self-discovery, empowerment and healing?and looking at this inner journey through the lens of archetypes was the key to understanding it.
Right now you may be feeling like an "unhealthy" INFP. You may be stressed out, burned out, and looking for empowerment and harmony in your inner world. Or you might simply be soul-searching and need a reminder that real personal growth starts with showing compassion towards where you are right now.
Either way, this book is designed to guide you through the different archetypes you may experience as you go through life as an INFP. It's a guide for seeing when your inner world is focused on looking for healing, growth, or comfort through the symbolism of universal archetypes.
This book also helps you to create a picture of how your current active archetypes help you to serve others and the community. But above all, this is a book that shows how each combination of INFP Archetypes that arise in your life are uniquely yours.
I hope this book serves as a space for compassionate self-exploration without strict structures or rules. This is your personalized journey towards enoughness and empowerment.
