This collection includes three talks on individuation, the process of psychological growth. Three of our favorite teachers take you on a journey that can help you experience a more meaningful life that is true to your unique essence.
These talks were first presented at the Jung Platform Summit ‘Become Who You Truly Are’ in May 2020.
Course Overview
Central to Jung’s theory is the concept of individuation, the process of psychological growth. In this collection, three world-renowned speakers talk about ways to become who you truly are.
Class 1. The Goddesses and Gods in Every One of Us by Jean Shinoda Bolen
How can mythological gods and goddesses influence our individuation process? Jean Shinoda Bolen explains how archetypal gods and goddesses are a useful shorthand for describing or analyzing behaviors, patterns and personality traits we experience as humans. She will explain how your understanding of archetypal patterns can play a central role in returning to your true Self.
Everyone has a leading role in their own unfolding life, a god/goddess given gift to learn about and accept. Each individual needs to take responsibility for these to change, recognizing and surmounting these liabilities so that they can change and move closer to self-actualization on their journey of individuation.
Class 2. Engaging with Your Genius by Michael Meade
Are you ready to tap into the unique part of you that can change the world – your genius? Everyone has been allotted one or multiple genii at birth. The genius is the personalized version of an archetype that is particular and specific to each individual.
Take this journey With Michael Meade, a gifted story teller who will share mythological tales and personal stories to help you incarnate the genius in your reality.
Jung considered the connection with our own genius as part of the individuation process and Michael will explore the different qualities that the genius has, the ways we can discover the genius in our own life and how we can build a relationship with this figure.
Class 3. Embodiment, Movement and Consciousness by Tina Stromsted
Jung’s idea of individuation, is not only a theoretical concept… It’s true embodiment and exploration comes to life in one’s own body. The psyche manifests itself in the body and the body provides the symptoms, feelings and directions for your own individuation process. The body is the way of being in the world.
When one gets deeply embodied, one experiences increased kinesthetic awareness, better interpersonal skills, deeper empathy and intuition. These are all steps to restore a sense of authority to your own bodily-knowing. Come and discover new ways to become embodied, uncover your beauty through movement and in so doing, move closer to your higher consciousness.
