A Book by Dennis Stevens, Ed.D.

Sacred Descent of the Warrior, a book by Dr. Dennis Stevens, is a profound and beautifully crafted guide through the inner landscapes of masculine healing. Rooted in myth, depth psychology, and narrative poiesis, the book invites readers, especially male veterans, to engage with their wounds not as flaws to fix but as gateways to deeper authenticity. Stevens skillfully weaves archetypal wisdom, philosophic insight, and reflective practices into a rich, poetic framework that transcends typical self-help. 

This is not a prescriptive manual but a companion for those navigating grief, uncertainty, and the sacred fog of transformation. What distinguishes the work is its reverence for slowness, silence, and presence, qualities often neglected in contemporary approaches to healing.

Rather than offering easy answers, Stevens offers readers a torch to carry through the descent, honoring both personal and collective dimensions of masculine identity. This book is essential for those ready to walk the difficult, soulful path toward wholeness and becoming complete with their origin story.
