The Insight Cure is wonderfully aligned with the hero’s journey. You are the hero of your own life, and you are on a quest. When you began your journey inward, you didn’t know who you really were. As you march into unknown worlds (working through) with the help of mentors (or just a humble author), you have to slay your dragons (false truth, old story), and take the boon (new knowledge and deep understanding) home with you for the betterment of yourself, your family, your tribe, and the entire world. One of Campbell’s famous lines in The Hero with a Thousand Faces is “Where we had thought to find an abomination, we shall find a god; where we had thought to slay another, we shall slay ourselves; where we had thought to travel outward, we shall come to the center of our own existence; where we had thought to be alone, we shall be with all the world.”13

Another interpretation of the hero’s journey that’s even more relevant to the Insight Cure was created by Hollywood story development executive Christopher Vogler. He expounded on Joseph Campbell’s work in his own best-selling book for screenwriters, The Writer’s Journey: Mythic Structure for Writers.
