The Love Outraged Workbook

The Love Outraged Workbook is a follow up to Sollar’s book, Love Outraged and the Liberation of the Core Self. The book includes a number of practical activities that individuals can utilized toward healing and growth.

This workbook is a guidebook with instruction, meditations, and activities designed to help liberate the greater self in the personality from the shrouds of the character faults and shadow elements of the personality. It is not a simple positive psychology of believing in the good, suggesting you simply visualize a positive state and everything will be alright. It is not a way to bypass one’s dark side to just be “happy.” It engages one’s shadow to transform it. The suggested exercises bring out the darkness so it can be worked with through self-acceptance, self-awareness, and self-confrontation. There is no suggestion to go around one’s troubles, but encouragement and guidance to go through them.

The greater self-seeking liberation—also known as the higher or core self—is the fountain of the inner wisdom, empathy, vitality, and inner peace we all desire at deep levels of our personality if not the conscious self. Using depth psychology, including humanistic and existential foundations, as well as elements of the mystical schools of the Kabala, Gnosticism, Buddhism, and Sufism, the work points to an unfolding of one’s loving, altruistic, and ecstatic life force that allows one to live creatively, fully, and generously. Illustrating a map of our inner landscape, The Love Outraged Workbook provides a path to find one’s way to the unified consciousness of our center.

You can also purchase The Love Outraged Workbook Activities Packet is also available for purchase through the University Professors Press website. This downloadable packet includes print outs of the activities from The Love Outraged Workbook.

I am delighted with your beautiful synthesis of depth psychology and metaphysical perspectives. You provide basic and clearly stated concepts along with useful and relatable examples. This workbook provides the fundamentals of inner work. A invaluable tool for those already engaged with in depth therapy and those who may embark on their own self-therapy.

I salute your careful, meticulous and comprehensive cartography of the terrain of the inner psyche. As well as for the exercises and meditations that bridge the esoteric and the practical.

The Love Outraged Workbook offers readers an experiential way to interact with concepts and processes outlined in the previously published Love Outraged and the Liberation of the Core Self. With deceptively simple exercises, Sollars invites readers to break the Promethean chains of self-alienation by identifying and befriending the thoughts, feelings, and defenses that contribute to estrangement from the Core Self. Accessible to clinicians and laypeople alike, Love Outraged Workbook is more than a workbook; it is a map of the human condition, a user friendly and accessible path home to the deepest center of being.

About the Authors

Franklin Sollars PhD is a psychologist/psychoanalyst, professor of graduate studies, and the author of Love Outraged and the Liberation of the Core Self. He has also published many articles in psychoanalytic journals and is a writer and director for a soon-to-be-released film, “Pirates of the North Coast.” He is also Clinical Director of Sollars and Associates Integrative Counseling and Psychological Services across Michigan.
He has spent much of his life working with the intersection of psychoanalytic and mystical thought, which has brought him to the publication of his most recent book with co-author Jamie Sharpe—The Love Outraged Workbook. The Workbook provides exercises, examples, and meditations that help readers work with the concepts of trauma and healing of the human suffering that trauma causes. The Workbook also uses the injuries of our past as stepping stones to emotional and spiritual growth.
Michael Eigen, author of Faith, The Psychotic Core, and The Birth Experience, wrote about Sollars:

Sollars writes profoundly about a deep core in the personality and paths leading towards and away from it. In this, he lines up with a great tradition of writing that affirms the depths of the human condition and attempts to delineate factors that enable sound development.
