In 1913, Jung followed his Soul into the unconscious. This journey was the Rosetta Stone for the rest of his research and work. His destiny was to redeem the embodied soul from vilification and exile for modern psychology. The body has been relegated to the shadow. We will show through neuroscience why our healthy instinct, emotion, intuition, energy, imagination, somatic unconscious, and the feminine was pushed into the cultural unconscious. Our embodied soul was forced into the shadow.<\/p>\n

Jung states that we cannot have a soulful life or transform without connection to our body – they are inextricably linked. We will demonstrate how his favourite method of working, embodied active imagination, offers us the ability to engage with our embodied soul and the inter-active field thus retrieving it from the shadow personally and professionally. This is his legacy to us.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Through the neuroscience of Iain McGilchrist, students will understand the importance of the embodied soul for modern psychology.<\/li>\n
  2. Participants will learn through history how the embodied soul was banished to the cultural shadow.<\/li>\n
  3. Understanding Jung\u2019s favorite method of working, embodied active imagination, will demonstrate a way to work with the body through the imaginal realm and the subtle body.<\/li>\n
  4. Discussion around film clips and selected readings will flesh out these ideas for the participants.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
