Jean Houston's exploration of exercises and techniques for expanding human sensory, psychological, and creative capacities — a practical manual of the human potential movement.
Argues that humans routinely use only a fraction of their capacities — perceptual, cognitive, creative, spiritual. Offers structured exercises to develop kinesthetic awareness, pattern-recognition, creative imagination, and mythic imagination. Part of Houston's broader project of 'sacred psychology' — treating human development as participation in a larger story.
