Overview

Inspired by my work with the Irish mythologist, Sharon Blackie, the Earth Allies process encourages people to connect deeply with the World around them for healing of both person and place. This revolutionary process encourages people to identify the parts of their landscape or animals they are attracted to and then determine what stories they had to share. In order to heal the planet, we need new myths—not only to reconnect us to the planet, but also to discover parts of our Selves. The Earth Allies help us do that work. Based in Jung’s theories on archetypes and the individuation process, Earth Allies are plants, animals, minerals, stones, and parts of the landscape on which a person lives. In this 4-Week Webinar, Dr. Pamela Hancock will explore the overall importance of Nature in Depth Psychology and how we can evolve as a result. This unique Earth-based system can then be used by participants each month to reveal important messages and bring awareness to the land. The process can also be harnessed by therapists to bring in a ecological dimension to their practice and help heal the souls of their clients by holding up a mirror to the world around them. Participants will also be lead through the guided visualization process in a workshop at the end of the series.
