*1-1 Mentorship Information: Price & Structure (Maximum Capacity = 20 Clients Per Year)*
It's an absolute pleasure to film these UA-cam videos, and I feel fortunate to receive an abundance of meaningful messages every week, but I am unfortunately faced with the disappointing reality of turning away the vast majority of people who want to work together.
I have significantly limited availability and can only support twenty people per year because I do not offer one-off calls or drop-in consulting sessions.
Twenty individuals might not sound like maximum capacity, but the last few years of teaching have taught me the importance of maintaining tight energetic boundaries if I want to keep uploading these free videos in addition to serving my current clients to the best of my ability in 2024.
To minimise confusion and enhance transparency, I've spent several hours writing this ridiculously long comment to help you decide if my Inner Work Mentorship is the right choice for your development & what you could reasonably expect from working closely together.
Please take the time to read this service description before contacting me on Instagram… or feel free to stop reading right now if you’re not interested in my fees, session structure, client expectations, etc.
...
*READ BEFORE SCROLLING FURTHER:*
I'm interested in long-term change and structural transformation, which is why I've never offered one-off sessions.
Complex issues cannot be resolved in a few hours, but we likewise need to define an upper limit for containment and collaboration.
I've learned that deep and enduring self-integration requires at least four months of immersive effort. Why four months? It's enough weekly contact for us to work through multiple complex issues and developmental possibilities, but short enough to mitigate against unconscious co-dependency and motivational stagnation.
I'm currently accepting a maximum of two new clients per month - message me after reading the following section to check my availability.
...
*HOW I WORK & WHO I WORK WITH*
Unlike other coaches and teachers who take an understandably more relaxed approach to healing and integration, my mentorships are characteristically intense.
This is a highly-demanding, high-investment process which requires our consistent combined effort over a period of four months.
If we were to start working together, I would reasonably expect you to be excited to show up for a minimum of 10+ hours of self-motivated transformative practice per week (daily reading, fitness routine, creative exercises, spiritual reflection, etc.) while also maintaining full-sobriety (no drink, no drugs, no cigarettes, no vapes).
These strict standards of discipline and sobriety are plainly unsuitable for most people in most situations - even genuinely motivated individuals who resonate with my UA-cam videos may not be the right match for four months of structured mentorship.
If you want to get deeper, I've noticed that there's a certain type of ‘temperament' & 'timing’ to get the most out of me.
I'm interested in alert, creative and purpose-driven individuals who aspire to exceptional standards of self-maturation and would enjoy the feeling of going through week-on-week of progressively stacked transformative experiences for a third of a year: my ideal client is somebody who is willing to bring forward their internal complexity with a sense of courage and transparency with the intention of nothing less than full-spectrum transformation & rapid acceleration on their personal path.
I am yet to discover another supportive figure who offers something comparable to this mentorship: a four-month, structured yet flexible 1-1 container which is simultaneously therapeutic, academic and action-oriented; with primary focus placed on tangible improvements in your felt sense of self-knowledge and self-integration; in addition to making consistent and meaningful progress towards your unique goals and mentorship aspirations.
I prioritise contact, compassion and accountability, which means that your work never really 'ends' at the end of your session. You can reasonably expect to be fed dozens of customised reading suggestions and follow-on perspectives outside of the formal sessions via friendly and informal messenger contact, where I am active and available four days per week to cultivate an intimate personal connection while likewise enhancing your positive momentum via accountability check-ins and additional support as required.
By way of conclusion for what feels like an extraordinarily long comment and service description, I feel compelled to once more emphasise that working directly with me is unrealistic for most people in most situations.
I often support people who are accustomed to wrestling with the emotional challenges associated with working through complex wounds in previous therapeutic relationships before we begin our coaching work together. Even individuals without 'hard trauma' can expect moments of pressurised darkness and heaviness during periods of shadow contact as you begin to restructure your personal unconscious. We will be exploring your psyche and soma at scale and depth, and it will be your responsibility to keep me informed about the emotional texture of your internal reality, especially if you encounter negatively charged experiences, and I will of course do everything in my power to support you through the hard times as we integrate the darkness and move forwards together.
UA-cam is a wonderful place for me to share free research resources and offer accessible inner work invitations; my private mentorships, however, are the place for collaborative partnership and emotional security as we identify, navigate and restructure oftentimes confronting and challenging conscious and unconscious physical, emotional and mental material.
Ultimately, this is a highly-demanding but highly-rewarding process which requires the best of our shared intentions.
...
*SESSION STRUCTURE & FEES:*
The total fee for an Inner Work Mentorship (including 12 x 2 hr sessions) is £7,400 GBP or approximately $9,400 USD. This is my only coaching programme, and my mentorship pricing is liable to adjustment over time.
Each private session lasts two hours, and is facilitated via Telegram video call at an ideal time for both of us. Your mentorship extends over a linear four-month period, with a total of twenty-four hours of structured session time, in addition to four days per week of unlimited messenger availability for accountability updates, voice note exchanges and informal calls upon occasion. I do not work on Mondays, Tuesdays or Wednesdays, but I am fully-available across all timezones for regular calls and messenger contact on Thursday - Sunday.
If you’ve scrolled this far, and resonate with what I’m offering, I invite you to message me on Instagram. It would be my pleasure to start exploring your goals and intentions in real-time.
IMPORTANT: I am an intentionally independent coach, and not a licensed therapist or associated with any professional bodies or coaching institutions, and therefore enjoy the freedom to collaborate with my clients across all areas of life in an intimate, direct and highly involved coaching style. I work with no more than twenty people per year, and am currently accepting a maximum of two new clients per month. I also manage my own inbox and do not use automated systems or employ people to pretend to be me on Instagram, which means that it usually takes four to six weeks for me to respond to new messages and begin the interview process. Although my approach takes time, I hope you ultimately appreciate my personal emphasis on authentic and confidential communication from the very beginning of our relationship. I once again encourage you to message me immediately if you want to start working together within the next two months - bump yourself to the top of my inbox, and I’ll send you some voice notes to get our conversation started.
Thank you -
What a thief! You read all this material only to steal from people like this? 9,400 for only 4 weeks? Thats just plain robbery!! Wow im going to start reading the same amount of books so i can start doing the same! What a thieffff!!!!
Also you said youre going to speak very fast bc there is not enough time fyi time doesnt exist it is unlimited you say that bc you want to manipulate people into thinking there isnt enough time. Wow impressive!!
@@everardomunoz5306 You just negated the very basis of your criticism. You say time doesn’t exist but are questioning the proposed value of 4 weeks of mentorship as if that’s “not enough time”. And then immediately follow up saying time is unlimited 😂 If it doesn’t exist, how is it subject to both your value judgment and quantization. And before you go there, unlimited isn’t the same thing as infinite. Anyway, just like time, the value of something is based on the perception of the one valuing it.
@@blissful_disobedience I didn't criticize the time of the "mentorship" i criticized the content of it. How is something this individual is going to change someones life? Yes I said 4 weeks and you may be right bc we live in a 3d world time is a fact. But in reality time doesnt exist is an ilussion. But what im really critizicing is the content for the value of it, that content for 9,400. What is he going to teach someone, how to magically appear gold or what?
The fact that you’re even on UA-cam and talking about this radically authentic and evolutionary necessity for the survival of Humanity topic is pretty darn cool. Who else would tell us about these books? Maybe a psychology professor somewhere in some school. Being raised by a 40 point impulsive psychopath didn’t help me any. Your videos have, at the very least, validated my hard fought and won healing journey. Thank you.
Rebecca, it's my pleasure to share these books - wishing you well with your next steps ahead.

@albertkirilov6921 the scale they use to identify them? The hare scale? Or something like that.

I know it’s off topic but your voice is so calming.
I know gorgeous. ❤ voice.
I subbed instantly because of his voice. I m not native English speaker but can understand him clearly
I really do agree his voice is soothing and calm
Yes, great voice for narrating.
wait really ? i saw a lean young man and i clicked on the video and boom he started talking , and it touched parts of my soul i didnt even know existed
I can feel your furstation, and I've never commented before but I felt it might be encouraging (if you do see this) to hear that I have gone on a binge of your work and it is exactly what I'm looking for. I'm starting off with the inner work essentials but I'm orderning half the books here I believe will be useful for my journey, and I have been voraciously consuming all this material for the past couple of weeks.
Your efforts aren't being thrown into the abyss, many of us are working hard to pay respect to your hardwork and generosity of gifting us with your knowledge and compassion. So, truly, and deeply, thank you.
This means a lot to me - going to share your words and effort on my instagram story. Thank you for inspiring.
Please trust that it does shine brightly-- your recommendations even on this platform have great value and I am grateful for them.
Will keep pouring love into this medium, thank you.
Your community is growing! Was one of your early subscribers and really happy for you. 🌻 I like your videos and sometimes I really binge watch those. Please keep up this good work. Best wishes! ♥️
Thank you for being here for the journey, Faria! It's been an excellent year, and I'm wishing you the best for 2023.
thank you, you are one of the rare youtubers to encourage people to watch videos as minimilalisticly as possible and that is trully so inspiring, caring and being real! hope more and more people will reach out to this channel to give some love and effort for themselves to heal! thanks for sharing all of this crazy crazy work!
You're so welcome! I really do see the value being in the books, so I can't help myself doing as much as I can to highlight their power. Wishing you well.
Wow, man! I am more impressed by the production setup quality of this video! The lighting and color grading is just top-notch! It looks so vivid!
I’m so happy I found this channel! Blessings from Italy 🙏
Thank you so much for taking the time and the generosity to share your recommendations with us, as a hypnotherapist I apreciate this so much and read them all!
You read them all? Must be stacked shelves 😂
Thank you for this list! I’m actually composing my 2023 reading list, so I saw this video at the perfect time! ❤
Glad it was helpful - these are some of the best out there, and my Inner Work Essentials series also features golden books in every episode. Check them ou, Raluca - and happy reading!
Jordan, just wanted to thank you for your tremendous efforts and the time you put into these videos to recommend these gems!!
All about the books - these authors know far more than me, and I want to see them become better known!
Thank you so much for posting these recs!! It's so helpful to know which books will actually be helpful when moving into more advanced consciousness healing. Thank you, Jordan!
These are higher level reads for sure - make sure to pick them up!
Thank you so much for your work !! 🙏💗💫really appreciate your content .Good luck on your journey ✨ love and light !!
You are so welcome, Hatty. Enjoy the reading in 2023!
Thank you Jordan. For any new subscribers this guy can point you to a special place in your life. His voice, manner and appearance runs deep into the richness of life as a human being. He connects in a deeply nurturing way. He evokes insight, knowledge and emotional balance. Enjoy!
This meant a lot to read today, thank you.
I got so excited finding this video that I literally danced a little in the first minutes while writing down the books, so that I could shake the energy off. I am really grateful for the massive high quality work that you are doing, Jordan! Your book recommendations and wonderful syntheses have been guiding me throughout this year, which has been mostly surfing from one existenttial disintegration to another. Thank you for the awesome wrapping-up and for sharing the insights of your work - this is the best new year's/Christmas present I could receive!
This is one of the best comments I could ask for - thank you, Ana. Merry Christmas and happy reading in 2023!

Dude can u share the list?
Thank you Jordan, this is wonderful guidance! I have just purchased a few of these and really looking forward to further reading! Your work is immensely valuable.
You're so welcome - happy reading for 2023!
Excellent video. Thankyou so much for taking the time to share your recommendations, this is extremely valuable to people. Much gratitude!!
Glad it was helpful, happy reading!
Your videos are never unforgettable. Thanks for all you do. All this free content is so appreciated. You have already helped me heal in so many ways. ❤
I'm wishing you the absolute best with this process ahead - keep at it this year!
I absolutely love Jungs red book, not from a psychological or scientific viewpoint but actually from an experienced one. There is so much I can relate to on deep realization path and the merging of absolute and relative that is described in those stories and anecdotes is just beautiful.
Most valuable book I've read for me personally
Interesting! It's certainly a very niche taste, your experience is more rare but welcomed!
Thank you. I am grateful you decided to share this content.
This is an excellently structured, no nonsense video. Such great work with the video and thank you for all your work putting it together.
Cheers - I've got a 24 books for 2024 which is even better, released it last week if you're wanting to stack your shelves higher. Welcome.
@@jordanthornton Amazing! I'll check it out, thank u mate 🙏
Thank you so much and I will certainly be buying a few of these recommended 🙏💚
Please do! They are GOLD.
Thank you so much for your invaluable shares of wisdom🙏🏿
You are so welcome.
Thanks Jordan. A lot of time and energy went into this video. Appreciated.
Glad you enjoyed it! Keep stacking the shelves 🌲
Thank you for the recommendations! These are exactly the type of books I was looking for.
You'll love my latest video with 24 books for 2024 too - check it out!
Thank you soooooo much dear Soul, love your authenticity, hope to be able to take sessions with you some day ✨❤✨ Blessings🙏
Another great video Jordan, love your work. Hope you had a good Christmas and have a great 2023. Love from Australia.
Much appreciation, Kane. Happy Reading for 2023!
Nice one for slogging through and finding some gems to share, beautkful stuff. Very much appreciated 👊❤️ thankyou
Thank you for investing the time to recommend these readings.
Thanks for being here.
Nice job. I liked the snappy book mentions. You showed the cover, authors, and why you liked it. Enough for us to determine whether we're interested or not.
Less youtube and more reading in 2023! This morning, I unsubscribed from 75% of my youtube subscriptions to dedicate more time to reading this year...your list is a divine synchronicity! I'm so grateful, this list is amazing Jordan. Thank you. I already bought Trials of a Visionary Mind and Embodied Spirituality in a Sacred World a few weeks ago, tomorrow will buy The Primal Wound, The Eden Project, Core Energetics, The Pregnant Virgin, and adding a few IFS books.....I'll be starting with Trials of a Visionary Mind. Thank you again for your generosity in sharing this invaluable content.
Powerful comment to read today, Juanita. Thank you for taking the time to read and study deeper - it means a lot to me.
right decision... congratulation ...
How’s it going 10 months later?
How it went as 2023 ended , I would like to know , what changes u see
I really admire how frustrated you are, and expressive about it too, about this being 'just another video' we pass through. I'm surprised I know none of these books, and that alone makes me want to buy some and read them. This was incredibly valuable. I'll come back and let you know which ones I end up buying and reading. Happy 2024, and thank you for this. :))
You'll love the latest 24 books for 2024 video! More gold and hidden gems, we've got a great year ahead - stock those bookshelves!
I get your frustration and anger, let it out. I am so very thankful for your content and for your wonderful recommendations! Bought at least 15 books your recommended and i became a passionate reader again that prefers education over infotainment.
Thank you brother for your dedication and your study, sending love from austria, Katrin
Katrin, this means a lot to me - thank you for doing the work in earnest. Wishing you much success and enjoyment with your studies in 2023!
Hii friend
Love your work & voicc frequency🙏
It seems you shared my childhood dream to do as the children did in "From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler" (except in a library and not a museum)... I think I still might move in to a closet full of books and try to catch-up with you! Thank you for your great insights and recommendations 🌻
Oh and I like you’re honesty regarding how you are feeling about the video
I'm absolutely blown away by your psychology book recommendation list. I have to be honest, some of these books are too complicated to be understood by normal people. I wish I could appreciate them, but they would go right over my head.
I'm going to read some of the lighter books that you have recommended.
You'll have an excellent time with the books you're drawn towards - enjoy the reading, and feel free to check out more videos on the channel. Recommended 200+ books here in total!
Thanks for the books stack, some of the books I have been looking ,well especially the 1st 3 books. Please keep up the good work
Thanks for being here, welcome and enjoy the channel - plenty more to come 📚
Hi Jordan I'm just about to listen to your video but read your intro first. I commented on another video last night to say thanks for the recommendation of the first book I'm reading from some you suggested (I only found your channel a couple of weeks ago) out of 4 that I bought. In case you missed my comment or it got lost, it was to acknowledge my gratitude for all your hard work which goes into every aspect of your content. The effort you must exert is enormous and it's so valuable, it's something I greatly appreciate and feel fortunate to have access to the wisdom and insights that you facilitate and share freely.
The book I'm reading is Trials of the Visionary mind and it grabbed me straight away. Its one of those books that could truly open up a space to help with navigating the most difficult and terrifying stages of the awakening process, and potentially save a life. This isn't me being dramatic, I just know in that book alone, there's so much practical guidance for dark night experiences and potentially dangerous psychological terrain without the right support. There are times I get so close to falling into the deepest hole where the existential suffering pushes me towards looking for an escape from this life.
The reason I wanted to share my experience with you Jordan is to let you know that I recognise your dedication, true wisdom and sincerity.
There are very few spiritual teachers/ creators that I feel I can relate to on this level of awareness. When I heard your first video I knew you were the real deal and I felt a healing connection with you (unbeknownst to you!) where I have noticed a significant shift in only a couple of weeks.
This is no mean feat, as I've been following this path for 13 years, and dedicating my life towards my overall growth and healing. My initial intention and motivation in the first place was a clear sense I needed to be involved in service work. I just had to feel I was contributing and doing something that might make someone's life a little easier, help them discover their beauty from within and anything that was possible to bring meaning and joy in their lives.
Your video about the wounded healer came at such a moment it was like you were reading my mind and energy. It was one of the most incredible mystical experiences I've encountered so far, and I could see for the first time where I'd been stuck for years.
It was so illuminating for me and helped me do some amazing integrative work to bring light and awareness of lots of things I've gone through.
I know you are not ego driven and I wouldn't insult you by making sycophantic remarks to blow smoke up your derrier 🤪 But I couldn't stop myself from sharing this with you, to make you aware of the enormity of how you are impacting me. I'd like to think there are more people out there who feel the same way, who are reading the books and learning some of the key aspects of the spiritual path to understand it and avoid some predictable pitfalls and traps.
They might just be reluctant to share for whatever reasons, but I'd be very surprised if few of your viewers are not reading the gems you suggest.
If anyone else sees this comment and doesn't think they need the books, or can't make the effort and commitment to investing in such valuable material, it might be worth reflecting on the reasons for not working with any book recommendations. I can vouch 100% that from one book alone, these suggestions are priceless.
Jordan, you have my deepest respect and gratitude for the time and personal work you had to go through, to be able to share your findings. There's so much garbage out there especially with the whole new age-ey nonsense.
Jordan is saving lots of time and attention to provide top notch guidance from some seriously advanced spiritual/ psychological practitioners and writers.
It strikes me as disrespectful of the work and an apathetic attitude to not be bothered.
This isn't coming from a place of judgement, but a genuine desire for whoever values Jordan and this channel to fully immerse themselves in these teachings and books.
It's too easy to read short bitesized articles or listen to a few UA-cam videos, but anyone who is serious about their growth, spiritual progression and their mental health should be able to recognise how much there actually is to learn and comprehend.
We don't have the luxury of coming from a shamanic community where there was so much support and wisdom from the elders to support the process.
Most of us can't just abscond and join a monastery to protect oneself from external influences and have clearer rules to be more conducive to the healing process without the harshness of the external world.
It's rare to find exceptional individuals who are qualified medical professionals/ psychologists to support any mental health states that accompany certain stages AND an understanding of the spiritual path to provide an integrated support system. There's a great need for a more transpersonal psychological framework or approach towards being capable of assisting someone who is stuck in a key stage in the awakening process.
Most of us are literally on our own for whatever reasons, without having access to the necessary and adequate care to avoid getting into serious psychological trouble or be able to make sense of what's going on with us on every level.
It's even worse trying to do this work if you lack any support or acceptance in your life, where you are viewed as unhinged and not taken seriously when you really need to feel safe and nurtured.
This is why your content is so unique and valuable Jordan, and you are providing the best source of guidance and support that one could hope for, who may be in the midst of feeling lost, disillusioned and tangled up with too much overwhelming processes happening all at once.
The new age and various ideologies promoted by false and delusional figures paint such a rosy picture of the spiritual journey, when this total bulls#hit. Most of us have endured inconceivable emotional pain through working through our wounding and traumas and it can be relentless. This is the content that is absolutely crucial right now to face the times we are living in.
Sorry that ended up being more of an epic ramble than I hoped 🥴 I'm just off to listen to your video now so I can jot down more books and get back into my current book you have shared 📚.
Thank you so much, you are so generous and kind.
Keep up the good work as you have been blessed with many gifts for service work that are vital for this epoch in time 🌸🕊️

Always try to keep it real here - happy reading, Cameron!
Not to worry. This video and your recommendations shines brightly. Thank you.
Thanks for being here for these kinds of messages 📚
I think it’s totally fine. But because you voiced your frustration, I receive it coming directly from your heart in the form of goodwill. And as a result, I wrote down the first 12 books, and once I get through those, I’ll come back and start in on the next 10! Thank you so much for doing this. Those who see the value of a curated list like this will receive it, just like I did. Thank you again.
Any recommendations
Thank you ❤️ My Buddhist teacher and dear friend sent me a link to this video. Please know that one of the wisest, kindest, gentlest people I’ve ever known obviously valued what you’ve done here, and sent me the link. And my first thought when I started listening is to get a few of those books, and to send this link to my daughter. She’s doing her PhD about mental health policies for children and teenagers. I’m certain she’ll be as excited about your book recommendations as I am. And again, thanks 😊
Excellent story to read, thanks for taking the time to share and wishing you and your family the absolute best 🌲
Grateful this video was recommended to me . Thank you for this video.
Happy to be helpful - some great advanced reads here, check out my latest shadow work playlist which I uploaded this week. Got a three hour crash course available for you and six more solid books to put on your bookshelf. You'll love it.
I just found your channel and Im really enjoying it. Thank you for the recommendations. This was very helpful.
Check out my latest 24 books for 2024 video if you haven't already - plenty more gold for your bookshelf!
This is the first video of yours I’ve seen, wanted to share I just bought two books from your list and queued up another 6. Thank you.
Thanks for being one of the rare people who picks up the gold given to them! Appreciate you - enjoy the channel, got a new 24 book video for you for 2024 too.
thank you, love you! yes these spaces are highly frustrating but I also believe these videos have a way of finding the right people at the right time. like it found me today
Welcome! Enjoy the channel and the endless books hahah
Hello Jordan, I recently came across your channel and wanted to say I really appreciate your content and book recommendations. The quality of curation is excellent, and I appreciate the incredible volume of books you've read and you generously share your best insights with others.
I've always had a strong draw to do Inner Work and Shadow Work, but never came across the right "language" or resources to get started. You have illuminated a path for me to elevate my consciousness and be a better more integrated person. 2023 I will make a focused effort to start on some prior book recommendations from other videos - I've purchased several books and look forward to reading them.
I would love to hear a bit more about your reading and note taking process, or if covered in other videos I will watch them in due time. Hope you are well and thank you for your excellent work, I look forward to more of your videos. All the best and best regards!
I've screenshotted your question as will likely release a video titled "How to Read More & Remember It All in 2023" or something like that - probably in a few weeks, thanks for the inspiration, Christopher!
@@jordanthornton Thank you for your reply Jordan, I look forward to reading the books and more of your videos. To read 180 books a year is unheard of, and to be able to talk about it is another level of achievement still. Your discipline in reading and study is inspiring and something I very much admire.
You're an awesome human! Thank you for your service and devotion. Its not much but let me give this back: You're causing positive change in people you will never even meet once in your life and that is nothing short of beautiful!
Cheers, Steve. It's a pleasure to be helping out in this important space.
Bless for sharing this bruda. Appreciate it
My pleasure - it's going to be an excellent year of BOOKS.
I have purchased 3 of these books ..for now, will likely purchase more off the list at a later time but I read very very slowly. I did this immediately after watching this video because, 1, I love studying and 2, I could see how passionate and emphatic you were that people actually do it… and you put such an effort to bring us your recommendations. (Outer authority) You mentioned at the end the feeling you had of frustration and anger… and due to that, along with the pace and volume of your obviously regular reading habits, my guess would be that you are a manifesting generator by design.
Love, a projector.
Bruv don't buy them see if you can get a free pdf
Looks like a great channel. I’m an INFJ who loves depth like this.
Taking it. Making it a list. Checking it thrice 🙏🏾
Santa in book form, we got this hahah
Great vid. Thanks for the value man
You bet - happy reading in 2023!
Thank you so much for you recommendations will read for 2023❤
That's what I love to hear, thank you and good luck with your 2023 research!
Thank you for this. ❤ I’m buying 2 of these books. EXTREMELY HELPFUL!!!! You are the only other person I know who has read nearly 200 books in one year. I did in 2019 and 2020 but I’m writing a book 😮. I had never heard of the 2 books-one on embodied mind, the other on the roots of war. Both are focuses in my book. I read the quote on Amazon from the war book and it is something that I have actually written about before and have said. Sounds very stimulating. I am writing about metaphor and the body. I’ve studied George Lakoffs stuff for years, etc. so I am very interested in issues of embodiment etc. my background is in evolutionary psychology and behavioral neuroscience but the first psychology book I read as a kid that eventually led to me get a psychology degree as an undergraduate was Man and his Symbols. Happy new year thanks again. Subscribed 😊
We have such similar tastes and interests so i know that each book you mentioned are going to be right up my alley. I very much appreciate this video...actually all of your videos.
Hope you enjoy it - 2023 is going to be excellent, Lindsay.
Thank you for this list. I already ordered a few and started reading two. I hope there is k e for 2023. I am going to check!
Better yet, I just released a video with 24 books for 2024 - that's the place to look!
Simple and helpful. Thank you.
Thank you for the help, Jordan. May God bless you!!
Ordered my first 3 books. Downloaded the video so I can easily find the next 3. Thanks you for doing the footwork for me!
You’re the kind of person I make these for - make sure to check out my latest upload from yesterday for another 24 golden choices ✌🏻
@@jordanthorntonhey brother can you wrote them in order in description box,that would be wonderful!
Thanks a ton!
Massive Respect!
Thank god Ijust stumbled on this channel as a way to gain in-depth knowledge on psychology. I am going to enjoy going through this channel...
Welcome, check out the shadow work playlist if you want a great starting point. Or my 24 books for 2024 which I posted in January… have fun and welcome again.
so far, I have two of Marion Woodman's books, The Pregnant Virgin and Addiction to Perfection. I'm going through the second one now. There's three others that weren't mentioned in this video but I plan on reading next: Hands of Light by Barbara Ann Brennan, Soul Centered Astrology by Alan Oken and Transcendent Sex by Jenny Wade (we'll see what I think of the last one). I can read through those first and then maybe make my way through the stacks you mentioned here. Thanks Jordan, and Hapy New Year!
Excellent choices, Diane! Let me know what you think.
Loved it !
Go on !
Go on !
❤🙏
Welcome, and thank you!
As soon as he said 1000 hours of research, I liked the video
Went all the way to 12,000+ if you want the full story of the last four years - enjoy the channel!
You make me laugh! And in all seriousness, Thank you for the great book recommendations! All but a few, are new to me.
Wouldn't be gold if they were common! Love this attitude, Sarah - happy reading!
INFJ here. Love the description of your channel and the content you're uploading. Thanks. Digging into it. ❤
Welcome, it's a great time for us to get connected - check out the shadow work playlist. Solid place to dive deep with reading and exercises!
I had been taking a break from my psychology studies for a long time and was looking for reading suggestions. Now I will watch the video again by taking notes, I saw the channel for the first time but I feel it will be helpful. I'm thinking of returning and editing the comment as I read it!
Thanks!
Looking forward to seeing new comments from you on new videos as you continue to dive back into studies!
Thank you for explaining the books so well. Some resonated with me. P.S. I like the way your voice sounds. 😊💗
Make sure to purchase at least three! They are GOLD.
I was feeling sick the whole week bc few things have depth. Then I saw this vid, thanks for making my day!
Welcome to the channel, enjoy the books! Many more videos for you to dive into here!
❤️❤️❤️ Speechless.. ❤️❤️❤️ 🙏🙏🙏thank you for your generosity, kindness...
My pleasure - more on the way, and happy reading in 2023.
Thank you for your effort! This is some interesting content on the messy world wide web.
The world can be loud, that's for sure. Trying my best to bring depth back - you'll enjoy my latest shadow work playlist if you want to get deeper.
Thank you. Knowledge = wealth
Absolutely my pleasure 🌲
easily the best self healing channel
Hoorah - happy reading!
Thanks Jordan
From Nepal
Awesome selection. Cant wait to tear through these 2024
Yes brother - and I've got a 24 book video released recently for a more sophisticated take on this same video. Check it out and good luck!
I am aspiring to be a great speaker. I like the way you speak; confident, easy, deliberate, subtle..
Thank you, brother.
Thanks. Going to start on these. Thanks for filtering for us!
Appreciate you, and hope you enjoy the videos here!
I loved your passion , your content was rich and indeed high quality, I was just scrolling in search bof a recommendation , as a beginner and found , I would like to to review your content ❤
you're right Jordan, i won't buy theses books, but i will borrow them from the local library.
Thanks for the recommendations!
Nice twist hahaha
Hi Jordan, many thanks for this video. So delighted to see 'Trials of the visionary mind' John Weir Perry in the list making my way through the beginning of the book now and astounded by the insight into psychiatry unconventional treatments... Blessings to you 🙏... Now I'm heading back to my Google play books app to open the book ❤️
Excellent - love hearing this! I'm answering your question on maintstream mental health / NHS which you asked a few weeks ago soon - should be about three episodes away, perfect for New Year.
@@jordanthornton great.... I have set my return to work date from an elation episode to return to work now, so this is very supportive news to me!!
Thanks! This looks indeed like a golden stack and a true gift that keeps giving! I already ordered Alice Bailey From intellect to intuition thanks to your one video. Thanks to your example I am gonna take my reading to next level and will take more systematic notes too. Its very true what you say by having actual experience of a thing is needed to make magic happen. I would be into reading especially your archetype stack first. This is amazing guideline that is very valuable. Thank you 🙏💫 p.s I was reading today Atlas of the Heart by Brené Brown.
Excellent - love to hear this. Archetype stack is wonderful, you'll enjoy it for your work.
Thanks for sharing that
So useful
Thank you Jordan. I am a Psychologist, and this is helpful!
Thanks for the work you do! ✌🏻 Check out the recent 24 books for 2024 posted in Jan if you want even more golden bookshelf material
Thank you for your recommendations! Like an Artemis I can now point my arrow on a worthy read and not get lost in the forests of endless pages.
Beautifully said - this is exactly my intention.
thank you very much for recommendation .... i will read all these books ...
If you do read all 12, send me a photo on Instagram! Inspiring.
Your previous selection of "Trauma and The Soul" would fit in nicely in with these books, at the very top. I ordered it from Amazon, after you featured it.
I agree - although it's not a book that I read this year, hence why it didn't make the list. Read it back in 2021!
Best intro. Thank you
I'm Taking it I promise!
All the love S.
Happy reading!
10:17...and 10 more! Hahaha I loved this video. I was typing up the books I've purchased from your channel as I watched it 🙃. I'll send it to you for next session
Little surprise, hey? 😉 Looking forward to our session and a 2023 full of reading and articulation 🌲
I'm adding them all to my reading list. I have loved to read these types of books for 50 (yes, 50) years.
Make sure to get them - some new recommendations in my latest videos too. Thanks for going deep, Kimberly.
I was looking forward to the scenic locations 😂 good video
Dear Jordan,
you are a huge intellectual inspiration to me. Thank you for your book recommendations and your passionate, high-quality videos!
All the best to you and many blessings!
Matthias, this means a lot to me. You’re gonna love some of these new reads, I’m sure 2023 will be a great year of research for you ✌🏻
Thank you for working tirelessly to better yourself and for the collective good! You are a legend! I discovered you recently and so glad I did Jordan. I’m well over 2 years into my healing journey and appreciate you curating this condensed top fav list.. I’ve spent a lifetime feeling utterly dumb experiencing an inability to comprehend/ understand basic entry level learning or even everyday conversation …I’ve noticed improvements for the first time in my life regarding memory etc I have to say that I feel intimidated by your intelligence and I’m wanting to buy some of your recommendations but looking for a list that is suitable for people with learning/ reading challenges also I’ve been experiencing depersonalisation for past 25 years straight and it effects the ability for me to read books and I can’t imaging these recommendations are available on audiobooks 😂😢 I’m not suggesting that you compile a list just for me of course but perhaps you could tell me of a few beneficial audiobooks? If not all good 🙏🌈 Thank you you for all that you do and sending you love from Australia ❤
Terri, I'm sorry to hear about some of your challenges, but pleased to know you're actively seeking to learn more. I unfortunately don't have any audiobook rec's, but I will continue to share hardcopies on this channel and wish you the best with your search!
@@jordanthornton Thank you for your reply Jordan ❤️
Thank you Jordan 🙏
My pleasure! Make sure to get some books and start 2023 off with that high-quality nourishment, Codi!
Thank you I will read all of these
All twelve? Great effort - have fun!
love your recs :)
Your eyes are so beautiful and your voice is so healing
Wishing you well for this year, enjoy the new books.
Lol
Your voice is so soothing
Okay gonna watch the video now
Enjoy the books!
Big fan of this channel ❤
Appreciate you taking the time to share, Callum - happy reading brother!
