https://jungian.directory/related_organisation/c-g-jung-society-seattle/The purpose of the C.G. Jung Society, Seattle, is to support a sustainable learning community centered on the life and work of Carl Gustav Jung. We promote Jung's analytical psychology, which emphasizes the development of the whole person as the path to self-knowledge, creativity, and well-being. At the Society, we examine the interplay of the conscious and the unconscious through the lens of diverse traditions, including religious, transpersonal, and mythological ones. We organize events such as lectures, workshops, and discussions that offer intellectual, participatory, as well as experiential engagement with Jung's work.Last visited Aug 23/2021 - no events

The ‘As-If’ Personality: Imposter Syndrome
When you look in the mirror who do you see? The real, imposter, a role, or a true self? The ‘as-if’ person usually wears a mask presenting through the persona of facade, living in fantasy and illusionary worlds. The psychological issues affect intimacy with oneself and others through escaping the present. The results often include feelings of not belonging, sexual addiction, conflicts around aging, the cultural influence of social media, body image and the predominance of split selves. All these aspects are promoted by our culture of social media and narcissism where reality and illusion are often blurred. The purpose of exploring the ‘as-if’ and imposter personality is to nurture the process of individuation and self-reflection in a more complete mirror. This can replenish both the personality and the culture.
