Summary
Since 1980, depth psychologist Bill Plotkin has been guiding women and men into the wilderness - the redrock canyons and snow-crested mountains of the American West - but also into the wilds of the soul. He calls this work soulcraft.
There's a great longing in all people to uncover the secrets and mysteries of our individual lives, to find the unique gift we were born to bring to our communities, and to experience our full membership in the more-than-human world. This journey to soul is a descent into layers of the self, much deeper than personality, a journey meant for each one of us, not just for the heroes and heroines of mythology.
A modern handbook for the journey, Soulcraft is not an imitation of indigenous ways, but a contemporary nature-based approach born from wilderness experience, the traditions of Western culture, and the cross-cultural heritage of all humanity. Filled with stories, poems, and guidelines, Soulcraft introduces over 40 practices that facilitate the descent to soul, including dreamwork, wilderness vision fasts, talking across the species boundaries, council, self-designed ceremony, nature-based shadow work, and the arts of romance, being lost, and storytelling.

To ascend we need to descend
In current spirituality there seems to be an overemphasis on ascending. Breaking free from the highs and lows of our human everyday lives. Bill Plotkin offers a counterpart to spiritual ascent, soul descent. As every positive pole needs a negative, so ascent needs descent. He masterfully weaves intimate and personal stories to illustrate how and why we all should seek out soul initiation and why the underworld journey is important to all seeking their true path and unearthing their gift to the world.

Amazing book, not as good reader
I loved this book but I have to admit I find the voice tricky to come to terms with. There is so little emotion or creative performance.

Soulful guide
Soulcraft is a soulful and essential guide to the field of depth ecology and for inner transformation in the wild. I was particularly touched by the stories of his workshop participants out in the wild which I assume was through Animas Institute. Thank you very much for the audiobook. The narrator did very well. I look forward to Wild Mind.

I need to read the book!
So much in here, I need the book rather than audio to look back and take it all in. The narration is monotone and robotic at times. I fell asleep quite a few times whilst listening. Fascinating content.

Good book, not so good narration
Loved the book and the stories shared in it. Didn't enjoy the narration, could have been done with more involvement.

Just what I needed!
This book has arrived at the perfect time. Whilst the narrator is somehow overly expressive and yet monotone, it doesn’t take away from this in depth look at soul discovery and exploration. Have bought the book as well which I rarely do!

Every human needs to understand these concepts
Especially parents… so we can make for more soul -centred children. I love Bill Plotkins work and this is probably his most accessible and life changing work. The narration is fine, if lacking a little emotion.
