In this solo episode, I delve into the concept of happiness, drawing insights from Carl Jung and Arthur Brooks. I discuss the five pillars of happiness as proposed by Jung, which include good health, strong relationships, appreciation of beauty, meaningful work, and a philosophical outlook. I emphasize the importance of progress towards happiness rather than a fixed destination and provide practical actions to cultivate happiness in daily life. - Timestamps:  00:00 Exploring Happiness 2:10 The Five Pillars of Happiness 10:47 Practical Actions for Lifelong Happiness - See discounts for all the products I use and recommend: https://everybodyspod.com/deals/ - Shop For Everybody  Use code SFE10 for 10% OFF

Satya Doyle Byock is a psychotherapist, author of Quarter-Life, and a great teacher of Carl Jung's work. She uses the I Ching, an ancient Taoist divination system, as a tool to help guide her life. (Not dissimilar to how others might consult tarot, astrology, Human Design, etc.) Today, we talk about the beauty of the I Ching, and much more. Including: How we're seeking some combination of meaning and stability in our lives, a balance of the inner and outer world, and more harmony between rationalism and irrationalism. I learned some new things about Jung's theories on the unconscious, archetypes, and synchronicity. We pondered moments of meaning that can't be fully explained, and where the binary instinct comes from to either dismiss science or the sacred. And, ultimately, what a larger paradigm might look like if we made space for all of it—for expanded science, for synchronicity and meaning, for the masculine, and for the feminine.

Christopher Moore's new novel Anima Rising combines his signature elements – complicated artists, suspicious detectives, a bawdy sisterhood, and supernatural bonking – into a strangely moving tale of friendship and survival. Set in 1911 Vienna, Chris's new novel is a spiritual sequel to his 2012 art world masterpiece Sacré Bleu: A Comedy d'Art and, in anticipation of his upcoming book tour, Chris reveals how his fondness for Gustav Klimt and Mary Shelley drives this unlikely comic adventure; how both Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung had to figure into the story (because: 1911 Vienna); and how his novels are becoming increasingly touching...or at least that's how they're being read. (Length 21:17) The post 961. Christopher Moore's Frankenstein appeared first on Reduced Shakespeare Company.

Samtiden säger att vi ska uthärda och aldrig ge upp. Men att alltid avsluta saker leder till tyranni, konstaterar David Wästerfors. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna.Det går lätt i början, du nästan flyger fram. Musiken i hörlurarna lyfter dig, stegen känns självklara, skorna sitter perfekt. Marken liksom fjädrar när du springer din favoritrunda i kvarteret, på väg mot parken.Men efter ett tag blir andningen tyngre. Benen känns stumma, humöret förmörkas. Det här blir för tufft, du har överskattat dig själv, du måste ge upp.Men hur då, egentligen? Stanna och gå tillbaka – så nesligt och meningslöst. Stanna och vila – även det ganska nesligt. Det blir svårt att komma i gång igen, kanske omöjligt.Du känner igen motståndet och de dystra tankarna. Du biter ihop och härdar ut. Du fortsätter, fortsätter, fortsätter.En sådan här bild av kamp och envishet utgör en kontrast till bilden av att ge upp. Att ge upp gör oss sällan stolta eller malliga. Vi döljer gärna våra övergivna projekt och avbrutna löparrundor eller bäddar ned dem i fraser och lånade resonemang. ”Jag kände mig krasslig”, ”musten gick ur mig”, ”vädret slog om”, ”jag fick ett samtal”. Att ge upp brukar kräva en förklaring – en kulturellt tillgänglig ursäkt – vilket motsatsen inte alls kräver, alltså att lyckas, att fullfölja något.Hjältar i filmer eller spänningsromaner ger sig inte, däri ligger själva hjältestatusen. Motgångar infinner sig förstås, men till slut reser de sig. Men hjältarna blir tragiska om de helt saknar förmåga att i vissa lägen ta ett steg tillbaka och omgruppera. Att fortsätta slåss när slaget är förlorat blir ingen hjältesaga, bara ett kvitto på bristande ödmjukhet och realism.Vi säger väl aldrig ”hon är riktigt bra på att ge upp” eller ”att ge upp kan vara bra för dig”, men vi kan legitimera en avbruten strävan med att vi lärt känna våra begränsningar. Att tillåta sig ge upp i en prestationsorienterad kultur kan rättfärdigas precis så, som om vi förväntas finna en lärdom även i nederlaget, en tröstande liten vinst.Ungefär de här tankarna finner jag i den brittiske essäisten Adam Phillips bok ”On Giving Up”. Jag känner mig lite lurad av titeln eftersom bara den första texten handlar om att ge upp. Resten handlar om andra saker, till exempel om känslan av att vara vid liv eller om nöjet i att censurera sig själv.Adam Phillips är psykoanalytiker och förlorar sig naturligtvis i Sigmund Freud och psykoanalysens interna angelägenheter. På sidan 67 är jag nära att ge upp. Phillips tolkning av intrigerna mellan Freud och hans kronprins Carl Jung på det internationella psykoanalytiska förbundets kongress i München 1913 intresserar mig måttligt. Jag har andra olästa böcker i hyllorna. Varför ska jag lägga tid på just den här?Men skam den som ger sig. Jag fortsätter, fortsätter, fortsätter.Phillips lånar en aforism av Franz Kafka för att formulera vårt kanske vanligaste trick för att motstå frestelsen att ge upp. Vid en viss punkt, skrev Kafka, finns ingen väg tillbaka, ”och det är den punkten som måste nås”. Om vi bara lyckas avverka en så lång bit av löparrundan att vi lika gärna kan fortsätta – att vi hellre kan fortsätta, att det känns för sent att vända om – ja, då minskar risken för att vi kapitulerar. Vi kan med andra ord arrangera våra egna och andras handlingar så att frestelsen göms undan eller minimeras.Framgång består i att nå Kafkas punkt, att se till att bomma igen fönstren och stänga nödutgången. Men Phillips lyfter också fram det faktum att ”giving up” är tvetydigt. På svenska är den här tvetydigheten dold, men på engelska blir den uppenbar: ”to give up smoking”, ”to give up drinking”. Att ”ge upp” kan stå för något vi ibland beundrar och vill ta efter. Det finns en sorts ”ge upp” när vi tror att vi kan förändras och en annan sort när vi tror att vi inte kan det. I båda fallen offras något, men värderingen av det som offras varierar.Den här tvetydigheten i handlingen att ge upp är talande. Att alltid avsluta saker blir tyranni, ett slags förtryck som begränsar vårt medvetande. Det kan ge oss tunnelseende eller en avsmalnad uppfattningsförmåga, som om vi inte kunde föreställa oss något annat än ”framåt, framåt!” Att ge upp kan då synliggöra andra vägar – åt sidan eller bakåt. Vi kan också få syn på vårt beroende av andra som kanske fångar upp oss när vi faller, som kommer med en kopp te och några lindrande ord – och påminner om alternativ.Att ge upp har fått dåligt rykte i vår kultur, men ett milt och försiktigt sätt att erkänna sig besegrad skiljer sig från ett drastiskt. Det måste inte ses som skamligt.Ett självmord är den mest slutliga och radikala kapitulation vi kan föreställa oss. Självmord anses fel, ett kulturell tabu, tidigare var det kriminaliserat. Och ogillandet av självmordet kanske på ett underförstått sätt bidrar till att även små kapitulationer har fått något skamset över sig, som om hela ens identitet skulle gå till spillo i och med att Projekt A eller B kapsejsar.En mjukare modell finns i sömnen. Varje kväll ger vi upp när vi avslutar dagen och lägger oss i sängen. Vi överger ambitionerna, planerna, vår fåfänga strävan och våra offentliga roller. Vi överlämnar oss till det planlösa, det omedvetna. Att somna utgör en vardaglig variant av att erkänna sig besegrad, kulturellt godkänd och mentalt stärkande.Vi vill inte vara en ständigt vaken, sömnlös person – vi vet hur lättretlig en sådan person är. Vi vill vara en återställd och utvilad människa, alltså en som igår kväll gav upp. Men vi gav inte upp för alltid, vi gav bara upp just där och då.Inför varje strid mot de vita kolonisatörer i Nordamerika under 1800-talet brukade urfolket the Crow uppföra soldansen, en vädjande och stärkande dans med militära inslag. Men folket kuvades och stod inför utplåning. Vad skulle de göra med soldansen när det inte längre fanns någon mening att slåss? Tre alternativ stod till buds: att fortsätta dansa som om inget hade hänt, trots att den heliga funktionen försvunnit; att hitta på en ny mening med dansen, kanske definiera den som hälsobringande eller en vädjan om vackert väder; eller helt enkelt ge upp.The Crow gav upp soldansen kring 1875. Det blev ett sätt att bekräfta den kulturella förstörelsen. Risken fanns att dansen annars skulle degenerera till en nostalgisk parodi på sig själv. Därmed blev det också möjligt för urfolket att röra sig bortom sitt nederlag och inte fastna i det förflutna. Det var dags att – hur orättvist det än var – arbeta fram mer pragmatiska relationer till den där vita överheten.Det är inte givet att den som tvingas ge upp verkligen avstår från att skapa något.När den prisade författaren Sami Said intervjuades i radion och fick frågan ”hur vet du att du är klar?” citerade han sin kollega Claes Hylinger som sagt att det vet man aldrig som författare. Man blir faktiskt aldrig färdig med sitt manus. Man ger upp.Said beskrev hur han sitter med sina tusentals sidor – utkast och fragment i överflöd – och in i det sista är genuint osäker på hur hans roman ska se ut.Till slut skickar han in ändå, ”skit samma”. Och sen trycks boken.David Wästerforssociolog

In this mind-bending episode of the Greypilled Podcast, we dive deep into the cosmic chaos of Abraxas and the Demiurge—two of the most mysterious and misunderstood figures in esoteric lore. Is Abraxas the ultimate god of balance, blending light and dark, or just another mask in the puppet show of the Archons? And what exactly is the Demiurge—malevolent jailer of the material world, or a cosmic craftsman just doing his job? We break down Gnostic texts, explore Carl Jung's obsession with Abraxas, and unravel how these ancient forces still echo through modern spiritual and philosophical thought. Prepare for a ride through duality, deception, and divine madness.

In 2005, while visiting the gift shop at the downtown Los Angeles MOCA museum, I came upon a blank journal with a cover fashioned from a salvaged vinyl album by The Allman Brothers. It had the pink Capricorn label. As a lover of vinyl I grabbed it, and decided to begin a journal. It's been ten years, and I've been keeping this diary and transcribing my dreams  ever since. Dreams, ideas for songs, and a chronicle of my family and interior life.  I always intended to go back and see if there was some sense of something to be made out of it, and this is the first attempt at that.I hope you find it interesting. Bill Mesnik, 2025“The Interpretation of dreams is the royal road to a knowledge of the unconscious activities of the mind. “ (Sigmund Freud)“In contrast to the subjectivism of the conscious mind the unconscious is objective, manifesting itself mainly in the form of contrary feelings, fantasies, emotions, impulses and dreams, none of which one makes oneself but which come upon one objectively.” (Carl Jung)"Myths are public dreams; dreams are private myths. By finding your own dream and following it through, it will lead you to the myth-world in which you live. But just as in dream, the subject and object, though they seem to be separate, are really the same." (Joseph Campbell)“One day it will have to be officially admitted that what we have christened reality is an even greater illusion than the world of dreams.” (Salvador Dali)

Just had a dream about wolves. So I thought I'd do a podcast on wolves. In this episode, we explore "wolf energy" through books, legends, and Wheels of Time, the hit Amazon fantasy series.We'll also cover former NBA coach Phil Jackson, his wolf pack quote, Rudyard Kipling, and the Old Norse word for wolf.Carl Jung and Robert Bly also make an appearance.I finish with two books that I want to read Beowulf and Prose Edda.Embrace your wolf energy.

In 1952, at the age of seventy-six, Carl Jung wrote Answer to Job in a single burst of energy and with strong emotion. He completed it while ill, following a high fever, and upon finishing, he felt well again. The book explores the nature of God, particularly what Jung perceived as God's dark side, a theme that preoccupied him throughout his life. In it, the theology first explored in the Red Book—the progressive incarnation of God, and the replacement of the one-sided Christian God with one that encompasses evil within it—found its clearest expression. This makes Answer to Job one of Jung's most controversial works. Jung wrote in a letter that the book, “released an avalanche of prejudice, misunderstanding, and above all, atrocious stupidity.”The fundamental idea in Answer to Job is that the pair of opposites is united in the image of Yahweh. God is not divided but is an antinomy—a totality of inner opposites. This paradox is the essential condition for His omniscience and omnipotence. Love and Fear, though seemingly irreconcilable, coexist at the heart of the divine.The story of Job follows a righteous man whose faith is tested by Satan with God's permission. Job loses his wealth, children, health, and the support of his friends, who insist he must be guilty. His cries for justice go unheard, so that Satan's cruel wager can proceed undisturbed. God allows the innocent to suffer. Still, Job is certain that somewhere within God, justice must exist. This paradox leads him to expect, within God, a helper or an “advocate” against God.Jung flips the traditional understanding of Christ's work of redemption: it is not an atonement for humanity's sin against God, but a reparation for a wrong done by God to man.“God has a terrible double aspect: a sea of grace is met by a seething lake of fire, and the light of love glows with a fierce dark heat of which it is said, “ardet non lucet”—it burns but gives no light. That is the eternal, as distinct from the temporal, gospel: one can love God but must fear him.”When Jung was once asked how he could live with the knowledge he had recorded in Answer to Job, he replied, “I live in my deepest hell, and from there I cannot fall any further.”

Ep. 180 (Part 2 of 2) | In this podcast, John Prendergast, spiritual teacher, depth psychotherapist (retired), and prolific author, eloquently lays out the territory we encounter on the spiritual path as we move towards opening to our deepest ground. John defines deepest ground as “ungraspable and unfathomable, something we can know intimately as a quality of awareness, unbounded and open.” “When we touch into this,” he continues, “we move from a place of love, peace and groundedness.” In working with students and clients over four decades, John says the presence or absence of ground has been the most important theme. John has a gift for communicating exactly what is most useful for a spiritual practitioner to hear: taking an integral and nondual approach different from traditional psychotherapy, he invites us to evoke presence—welcome the experience, welcome the fear of annihilation—let go of ordinary knowledge and allow a translucent, transformative space to emerge around ordinary mind. Blending archetypal wisdom and guidance with spacious emptiness, John explains that opening to unbounded awareness supports the process of individuation and actualization; he also weaves in an intriguing version of the hero's journey, where the hero emerges from the underground, not as a figure of accomplishment and victory, but as a simple, humble being, void of ego. The rich wisdom and gentle guidance offered here is invaluable, worthy of listening to many a time.

Podcast: Toe the Rubber May 1, 2025 Return to Synchronicity McClintock and Jung Barbara McClintock: American scientist and pioneering cytogeneticist who made groundbreaking discoveries in genetics. She is best known for discovering "jumping genes" or transposable elements— segments of DNA that can move within a genome. Her work showed that genes are not fixed in place and can regulate each other, which was revolutionary at the time. "If you know you are on the right track, if you have this inner knowledge, then nobody can turn you off... no matter what they say.” "There's no such thing as a central dogma into which everything will fit. Life is too complicated for that.” Carl Jung: “Synchronicity is an ever-present reality for those who have eyes to see.” “The connecting principle appears to reside in the dynamics of the collective unconscious.” Current trend in Gadgets: A short list of physical products: Cross Symmetry bands/tubing Jaeger bands Towell drills - derivatives Weighted baseballs Baseball Derivatives of the pitch grips and different pitches Long Toss A list of technology products (arm or pitch centric): 1.

Proximal-to-Distal Sequencing in Pitching: A Coaching Manual for Youth Development Understanding the Proximal-to-Distal Movement Pattern In pitching, the proximal-to-distal movement pattern refers to the sequential activation and movement of body segments, starting from the body's center (proximal segments) and progressing outward to the extremities (distal segments). This sequence is crucial for generating maximum velocity and reducing injury risk. The kinetic chain in pitching typically follows this order: pelvis → trunk → shoulder → arm → forearm → hand. Each segment builds upon the momentum of the previous one, culminating in efficient energy transfer to the baseball. (Biomechanics Research Aims to Improve Sports Performance, The Association of Baseball Pitch Delivery and Kinematic Sequence ...) Sequencing Order and Its Importance The ideal pitching sequence involves: (Kinematic Sequence Important for Preventing Baseball Injuries) 1. Pelvis Rotation: Initiates the kinetic chain, generating rotational energy. 2. Trunk Rotation: Transfers energy from the pelvis to the upper body. 3. Shoulder Rotation: Continues the energy transfer, positioning the arm. 4. Arm Acceleration: Propels the forearm and hand forward. 5. Forearm and Hand Movement: Final acceleration and release of the ball. (Sport Specialization and Overuse Injuries in Adolescent Throwing ..., Comparison of Kinematic Sequences During Curveball and Fastball ...) Proper sequencing ensures that each segment reaches its peak velocity at the right time, optimizing performance and minimizing stress on the body. (Biomechanics Research Aims to Improve Sports Performance) Negative Effects of Overtraining Distal Segments Focusing excessively on training distal segments (arm, forearm, hand) can disrupt the natural kinetic chain, leading to: • Increased Injury Risk: Overemphasis on the arm can cause imbalances and place undue stress on joints and muscles, increasing the likelihood of injuries such as UCL tears. • Neuromuscular Fatigue: Isolated training of distal segments can lead to fatigue and decreased performance due to the lack of support from proximal muscles. • Inefficient Mechanics: Neglecting the development of proximal segments can result in compensatory movements, reducing overall pitching efficiency. Disruption of Motor Engram Sequencing Motor engrams are neural patterns that encode specific movements. Overtraining distal movements can: • Alter Motor Patterns: Focusing on arm path alone can lead to the development of faulty movement patterns, disrupting the natural sequencing of the kinetic chain. • Impair Skill Acquisition: Neglecting full-body mechanics hampers the integration of complex movements, making it harder for pitchers to learn and refine their delivery. • Reduce Adaptability: Ingrained improper patterns limit a pitcher's ability to adjust mechanics in response to game situations or coaching feedback. Age-Specific Considerations Ages 10–12: • Focus: Developing general athleticism and introducing basic pitching mechanics. • Training Emphasis: Body awareness, balance, and coordination exercises. • Avoid: Specialized pitching drills that isolate arm movements. Ages 13–15: • Focus: Refining mechanics and building strength. • Training Emphasis: Core stability, lower body strength, and integrated movement patterns. • Monitor: Growth spurts that may affect coordination and mechanics. Ages 16–18: • Focus: Enhancing performance and preparing for higher-level competition. • Training Emphasis: Advanced strength training, power development, and fine-tuning mechanics. • Caution: Avoid overuse and ensure adequate recovery to prevent injuries. Conclusion A comprehensive understanding of proximal-to-distal sequencing is essential for developing efficient and safe pitching mechanics. Coaches should prioritize full-body training approaches that emphasize the integration of all body segments, ensuring young pitchers build a solid foundation for long-term success.

Christine Valters Paintner is joined by author Claudia Love Mair for a series of video conversations. Every other month they take up a new book by or about a voice of color. The community is invited to purchase and read the books in advance and participate actively in this journey of deepening, discovery, and transformation. This month they sat down with Patrick Saint-Jean to discuss his book The Spirituality of Transformation, Joy, and Justice: The Ignatian Way for Everyone. Discover how rooting our beliefs and practices in relationship–with each other, the natural world, and the Source of All Life–leads us to transform ourselves and the world. At its heart, Ignatian spirituality is practical and experiential, offering modern readers a structure for pursuing inner growth that results in transformed action. While it is a deeply contemplative practice, Ignatian spirituality appeals to many of us who are looking for purpose and meaning, and who are wondering how to live out that purpose in a way that addresses the brokenness of our world. At the heart of this thoughtful introduction to Ignatian spirituality are the Spiritual Exercises, developed by St. Ignatius of Loyola of Spain. Using ordinary language, these meditations point to the ways in which this spiritual path not only “grows our souls” but also inspires us to defend human rights, respect and listen to other cultures, find common ground between science and religion, struggle for justice, and honor a Divine Spirit who is actively at work in each aspect of our world. As twenty-first-century spiritual seekers, we do not need to be Jesuits, Catholics, or even Christians to make use of Ignatius's methods; some of history's most important thinkers–from René Descartes to Carl Jung–were influenced and inspired by the Spiritual Exercises. Let them guide you to transformation in the ordinary, everyday world. AbbeyoftheArts.com/lift-every-voice/the-spirituality-of-transformation/

 - Carl JungWhat is the difference between forcing things to get them done and operating from a position of power?When we force things, we operate from a mindset of winning or losing, or from a place of scarcity. In contrast, when we operate from power, we recognize that we can gain from both winning and losing, and strive for improvement. In every situation, we learn something valuable. As a result, we grow, and everything around us can improve as well.This means we are operating from a position of power rather than forcing outcomes.As a Zen quote says, “The grass grows by itself.” You don't need to pull the grass; it grows naturally. This reflects the concept of Wu Wei: to do without doing, or to be in the flow. When I put myself under pressure, I become ineffective.For instance, all those rigid concepts about writing a book—such as writing a page every day or structuring it first—are absolute nonsense. Instead, write when you enjoy it! I have written books in many noisy places: in the mountains, on the beach, at train stations, and in crowded hotel lobbies. Sometimes, I was freezing; I didn't care. The key is to write what is inside you without judgment, and afterward, you can structure it. If something doesn't fit, delete it. This is the approach of many successful authors: don't force it!**How do we get into a position of power?**We need to bring light into our shadow. Carl Jung describes these different inner voices as our shadow—comprising suppressed emotions, thoughts, and experiences. Until we integrate our shadow into our persona, we cannot operate from a position of power and fully harness our potential.We have many different personas inside us, and if we are unaware of this, our unconsciousness determines our lives. By bringing awareness to our unconsciousness, we can identify the various personas that influence our decisions. For example, the super-ego and our inner child are often in conflict. If we want to enjoy our lives, we should lean into our inner child and playfully address our problems.The super-ego tends to force things, which may not be beneficial in many situations. While the super-ego has its place—for getting things done, being punctual, adhering to our principles, and maintaining our morals—our inner child seeks joy and creativity.Moreover, we all possess masculine and feminine aspects within us. The traits, habits, and emotions that we dislike in others are often reflections of ourselves, despite our denial. As Goethe said, “Your own sins you first discover in other people.”If we don't acknowledge and accept our shadow, we will waste a lot of energy fighting against it. For example, men often seek new romantic partners, while their girlfriends or spouses may resent this behavior. Ironically, women sometimes experience boredom in their sex lives with their partners after about six months. Unaddressed emotions arise during crises, turning our lives into chaos. Crises reveal our suppressed negative emotions, and this awareness is valuable because it helps us understand what lies within us.We should accept every emotion, thought, and aspect of our shadow; otherwise, we cannot fully enjoy our lives. Initially, it is difficult when our darker sides come to the surface, but fighting against negativity only exacerbates the problem.Our goals related to money and fame are just a part of life and shouldn't replace love and relationships.**What about shame?**Shame is the belief that we are flawed. It creates a shadow that leads to negative self-judgment. For instance, consider masturbation, a common act that many judge negatively despite its prevalence.**What about guilt?**Guilt involves judging our actions—feeling that what we did was wrong.We should openly discuss our shame and guilt to accept both fully.My Video: Once your shadow finds light, the shift happens. https://youtu.be/J7UqosdQ88cMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast4/Once-your-shadow-finds-light-the-shift-happens.mp3

About James Ishmael Ford, Zen Buddhist Priest & Ordained Minister:James has walked the​ spiritual path for more than fifty years. He's danced with Sufis, studied with Christian mystics, lived in Buddhist monasteries, and eventually was ordained a Zen priest. Later, he was also ordained as a Unitarian Universalist minister. James' path has taken him to a life "between" several traditions, bringing him into a nondual spirituality. Trying to unpack what that actually means in his life, and with a tip of the hat to Erasmus, James claims a physiology of faith; a Buddhist brain, a Christian heart, and a rationalist stomach. You can learn more about James on his website and keep up with his most recent project, the Unanswered Question Newsletter, HERE. “For me, the goal is to find 'what is'. I originally framed it as 'Is there a God?' I realized I had the question wrong, and at some point it was 'what is God?'. Today, I would say, 'what is this?'” – James Ishmael FordSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this podcast we will be talking about how to know your true self using Jungian Archetypes according to the philosophy of Carl Jung. Carl Jung's psychology is called analytical psychology and his philosophy is dubbed as “Jungian philosophy”. Jung's most famous theory is ‘the individuation process.'  Carl Jung introduced the world to the idea of archetypes - common personality patterns that exist in everyone's mind. These archetypes affect how we think, act, and interact with the world. Imagine waking up with no memory of who you are—no name, no past, no identity. Yet, even with this blank slate, something inside you pulls in a certain direction. Maybe you feel an instinct to protect others, an unshakable drive to explore the unknown, or a knack for bending situations to your advantage. As you observe the world, patterns emerge. Some people step forward with confidence, while others linger in the background. Some deceive, some nurture, some fight for justice, and others thrive in chaos. At first, it seems random, but then a realization hits—you're not alone in this. People everywhere are shaped by unseen forces, playing out roles they may not even be aware of. You can think of Jung's archetypes as universal patterns that shape how we think, feel, and act. They appear across cultures and time periods, persisting in myths, stories, and even our daily lives. And these roles aren't confined to fiction. They shape us in the real world. A young entrepreneur fighting for a vision is living the Hero's journey. A mentor guiding others embodies the Wise Old Man. A disruptor challenging the status quo channels the Trickster. These patterns influence how we see ourselves, the choices we make, and the way we navigate life - often without us even realising it. So, which archetypes are shaping you?  So here are the steps you need to take to truly know yourself using Jungian Archetypes according to the philosophy of Carl Jung. 01. Understanding the Structure of Your Psyche 02. Understanding different Archetypes 03. Analyse your dreams   04. Pay attention to your archetypes in your waking life 05. Integrate Archetypes for Personal Growth I hope you enjoyed listening to this podcast and hope that this wisdom on how to truly know yourself using Jungian Archetypes according to the philosophy of Carl Jung,  will be helpful in your life.  Carl Jung, together with Sigmund Freud and Alfred Adler, is one of the 3 founders of psychoanalysis which is a set of psychological theories and methods aiming to release repressed emotions and experiences - in other words, to make the unconscious conscious. Jung was born in Switzerland in 1875 and died in 1961, leaving behind great works in the fields of psychiatry, anthropology, archaeology, literature, philosophy, psychology and religious studies. Jung had Freud as a mentor for a good part of his career but later he departed from him. This division was painful for Jung and it led him to found his own school of psychology, called analytical psychology as a comprehensive system separate from psychoanalysis. If classical psychoanalysis focuses on the patient's past, as early experiences are very important in personality development, analytical psychology primarily focuses on the present, on mythology, folklore, and cultural experiences, to try to understand human consciousness. One of the most important ideas of analytical psychology which Jung founded is the process of individuation, which is the process of finding the self - something Jung considered an important task in human development. While he did not formulate a systematic philosophy, he is nonetheless considered a sophisticated philosopher - his school of thought dubbed “Jungian philosophy”. Its concepts can apply to many topics covered in the humanities and the social sciences. A good part of his work was published after his death and indeed there are still some articles written by him that to this day have yet to be published. Some of his most important books are: “Psychology of the Unconscious”, “Man and His Symbols”, “The Archetypes and The Collective Unconscious”, “Modern Man In Search of a Soul”, “The Psychology of the Transference”, “Memories, Dreams, Thoughts”, and “The Relations Between the Ego and the Unconscious”. Besides being a great writer and a researcher, he was also an artist, a craftsman and even a builder. His contribution is enormous and there is a great deal we can learn from his works.

En Avant Première : Les 8 Personnalités de Jung

Alcohol, adicción y trauma familiar. Sesiones y asesoría con Christian Ortíz. https://linktr.ee/christianortizpsicologia Resumen de Episodio: 1. Alcoholismo: una enfermedad crónica y familiar El alcoholismo no se define por la cantidad de alcohol ingerido, sino por las modificaciones patológicas en la esfera emocional, conductual y relacional de la persona que bebe. Según la Organización Mundial de la Salud, la ingesta per cápita global de alcohol (personas ≥ 15 años) es de 4.9 litros de alcohol puro al año, mientras que en México alcanza los 4.8 litros, casi al nivel mundial . Sin embargo, en México se proyecta un aumento sostenido del consumo: para 2029 se estima un récord de 6.12 litros per cápita, tras nueve años consecutivos de incremento . Este patrón creciente expone a más familias a las secuelas del alcoholismo, pues la enfermedad no solo daña al bebedor, sino a todo su sistema familiar: cónyuges, hijos, hijas y otros parientes cercanos. --- 2. Magnitud del problema en la infancia En Estados Unidos, aproximadamente el 10.5 % de los niños y niñas menores de 18 años —unos 7.5 millones— viven con al menos un progenitor que padece un trastorno por consumo de alcohol . En el mismo país, más de 28 millones de personas se reconocen como “hijos de alcohólicos”, de los cuales casi 11 millones son menores de edad . Los estudios sobre Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) revelan que los hijos de padres con trastorno por consumo de alcohol reportan un promedio de 2.1 ACEs, y que tener incluso un solo ACE eleva el riesgo de desarrollar depresión, obesidad, tabaquismo y otros trastornos por uso de sustancias en la adultez . --- 3. Secuelas emocionales y conductuales en los hijos e hijas Los niños y adolescentes expuestos al alcoholismo parental suelen manifestar: 1. Inseguridad crónica y ambivalencia afectiva La imprevisibilidad del progenitor (ausencias, arranques de ira, olvido de responsabilidades) impide el desarrollo de un sentido estable de normalidad y seguridad. Esta ambivalencia —amor / miedo— sienta las bases para dificultades en la formación de vínculos seguros en la vida adulta . 2. Mentiras y silencio como mecanismo de defensa Para proteger la reputación familiar y evitar la vergüenza social, los hijos aprenden a ocultar la realidad: mienten con naturalidad y callan sus emociones. Este analfabetismo emocional limita su capacidad de expresar lo que sienten y de pedir ayuda cuando la necesitan . 3. Síndrome de Wendy y autoexigencia excesiva Al asumir roles de cuidador desde pequeños, desarrollan un juez interior implacable. Creen que, si son “perfectos” o “muy responsables”, obtendrán el amor que no reciben de su padre o madre alcohólico. Esto deja como herencia una autoestima frágil y una constante sensación de insuficiencia . 4. Replicación o rechazo extremo del consumo Algunos hijos terminan reproduciendo patrones adictivos en sus relaciones o en su propio consumo; otros los repudian con rigidez, considerando cualquier forma de bebida como una amenaza. Ambas respuestas son intentos de manejar el dolor y la incertidumbre heredados. --- 4. Alcohol y violencia familiar. La relación entre alcohol y violencia es contundente. En Estados Unidos, 40 % de los casos de violencia doméstica ocurren con el alcohol presente al momento de la agresión, y la severidad de los episodios aumenta si el agresor está ebrio . Otras investigaciones sitúan la cifra entre 55 % y 75 % de los incidentes de maltrato con algún grado de consumo de alcohol, y en más de la mitad de los homicidios por violencia de pareja los agresores estaban bajo la influencia alcohólica . Este vínculo agrava el sufrimiento de los hijos: no solo viven la inestabilidad emocional del bebedor, sino el riesgo de presenciar o padecer maltrato físico y psicológico, que a su vez se suma a sus ACEs y profundiza sus traumas. --- 5. La dimensión espiritual y el mito de las “zapatillas rojas” Carl Jung alertó sobre la perturbación de la psique cuando falta una experiencia espiritual profunda: muchos buscan ese “éxtasis” en el alcohol como sustituto de una conexión mística con el todo. En la mitología, Dionisio —el dios del vino— simboliza justamente ese anhelo de trascendencia. Para ilustrar cómo la adicción promete liberación y termina en perdición, recordemos el cuento de Las zapatillas rojas: Una huérfanita pobre recibe un par de zapatillas blancas para una presentación en la iglesia, pero elige unas rojas que encuentra irresistibles. Al calzárselas, experimenta un baile liberador que pronto se torna macabro: las zapatillas cobran vida propia y la obligan a danzar sin descanso hasta que un verdugo le corta los pies para liberarla. Esta parábola refleja cómo el consumo de alcohol, al inicio visto como un bálsamo, puede convertirse en un mecanismo destructor que arrastra a quien bebe y a quienes lo rodean hacia una danza mortal. --- 6. Desmontando mitos y preparando el camino a la sanación “Beber socialmente no es igual a ser alcohólico”: lo que define el trastorno es la pérdida de control y el daño en distintas áreas de la vida. “El alcoholismo es solo un problema personal”: en realidad es un fenómeno sistémico, con impactos en la familia, la pareja, el trabajo y la comunidad. “La culpa es mía”: ningún hijo es responsable de la enfermedad de sus padres. Reconocer esto libera del autojuicio y abre espacio al autocuidado. Estrategias de sanación: 1. Reconocimiento compasivo: aceptar que la familia de origen no determina el destino. 2. Intervención profesional: terapia individual, de pareja y grupal; programas de 12 pasos que integren enfoques clínicos y transpersonales, evitando literalismos religiosos. 3. Cultivo del mundo interior: prácticas contemplativas, artísticas o filosóficas que conecten con un sentido profundo de la vida (logos). 4. Educación emocional: aprender a nombrar y expresar emociones, y a construir vínculos seguros. 5. Redes de apoyo saludables: amistades y grupos que promuevan autonomía y crecimiento mutuo. 6. Reescritura de la propia historia: identificar patrones heredados, cuestionarlos y elegir nuevos mapas de conducta. --- 7. Hacia una transformación heroica La adicción, aunque dolorosa, puede ser una oportunidad de crisis transformadora. Al atravesar el umbral del sufrimiento y la conciencia, es posible renombrarse en el mundo y decidir otro camino: uno donde la familia sea origen pero no destino. Si te reconoces en estas experiencias, no te quedes en silencio. Busca ayuda: grupos de AA con estructura seria, terapia individual o grupal, libros y recursos confiables. Cada paso hacia la sanación interior te acerca a una vida más plena y menos marcada por los fantasmas del pasado.

Humanity balances between two paths: self-destruction or self-revelation. In this rebroadcast from a popular episode from April 2024, Christine Barrington describes this critical inflection point and argues that dreams awaken us to the realm of purpose and meaning, arguing that every one of us has much to contribute to the path of humanity. Christine begins with James Braid then outlines the complicated history of science and consciousness including how they got separated in the first place, culminating with the philosophy of positivism which is the belief nothing exists that cannot be verified. She notes in contrast that most of the giants of quantum theory were also mystics including Planck (mentioning his book Where Science is Going) and also Einstein, Schrödinger, Heisenberg, Bohr, and Pauli. On the thread of consciousness,  she quotes Carl Jung and his work on the tension of the opposites and synchronicity, also Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ken Wilbur, and Joe Dispenza and the birth of neurophysiology and mindfulness. Christine brings it all together talking about Thomas Campbell and his book My Big TOE and his “theory of everything,” which argues that consciousness is the basis for everything and that we are here on this planet to learn and evolve that consciousness, one person at a time. She plays a quote of Campbell’s about how dreaming gives us information about our selves in that how we react in dreams is how we are. As we learn to be more living and present, then our dreams evolve too. Christine ends by sharing information about Thomas Campbell’s organization, the Center for the Unification of Science and Consciousness CUSAC.org. BIO: Christine Barrington has worked as a psychotherapist and transformational coach and is a seeker who has invested years searching for answers underlying the challenges of human existence.  Here are links to Christine’s previous Dream Journal shows: https://ksqd.org/dreaming-a-new-future-through-conscious-evolution-with-christine-barrington/ and https://ksqd.org/transformational-dreamwork-with-christine-barrington/ You can listen to a summary of Tom Campbell’s ideas here: https://youtu.be/uEuOGCEmiTg?si=tpp-ekVYiGwfR1I0 and listen to much more on his YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@twcjr44 This show, episode number 307, was broadcast on April 25, 2025 at KSQD.org, community radio of Santa Cruz.

Yep, It's a Regular Guy Good Friday Edition of RGF and it's a long one. Hang tight, because this RGF features Kev and his ‘Christmas Specials We Love' podcast co-host, Anne, discussing all the things regular people talk about. The difference between the 3D and the 5D. Carl Jung and the 90% of you that is unconscious. Steps to shadow integration and the process of Internal Family Systems (IFS). The upgraded nervous systems of millennials and Gen Z. A different look at the teachings and life of Jesus. Then things got serious. How Kev's 'alt view' on pizza has had him shunned by peers in the pizza community, frozen pizza of the 1970s and how fish sticks were a Good Friday staple - and gross.  RGF Bonus: More dream analysis featuring a recent Kev dream: tips on how to decipher meanings, clues to reveal your unconscious and various guest star appearances in those dreams including what Jack Lord from the original Hawaii Five-O had to say.

My guest for this episode is Nick Literski.   Nick is a Jungian scholar, spiritual guide, author, and retired attorney.  Dissatisfaction with a career working in law, together with the experience of coming out as part of the LGBTQ+ community, led them to rebuild their life and pursue their interest in the intersection of spirituality and psychology. After three years of training as a shamanic practitioner, Nick's desire to help facilitate the spiritual journey of queer persons led them to earn a master's degree in Spiritual Guidance at Sofia University, where their thesis work focused on how gay men from non-affirming religious backgrounds create their own sustaining, affirming spiritual practices. This work, in turn, inspired Nick to pursue further graduate work in depth psychology and attain a PhD in that subject. Their dissertation work involved a depth psychological analysis of Palaeolithic cave art, through Carl Jung's technique of active imagination, with an eye toward what these images can reveal about the human religious instinct.   Nick is an accomplished author, having essays and articles published in multiple academic journals. They also co-authored Method Infinite: Freemasonry and the Mormon Restoration, published in August 2022 by Greg Kofford Books. In addition, Nick served briefly as Assistant Editor of the journal, Anthropology of Consciousness.   I begin the interview by talking with Nick about the life events that led up to their decision to change career and pursue their passions for psychology and spiritual development.  From there we discuss some of the methods they use to help their clients and this leads into an interesting conversation about how best to understand extraordinary experiences and the importance of personal meaning and subjective reality in trying to do that.

You're not broken; you're a story unfolding. This is just the beginning." Living with Borderline Personality Disorder can feel like your identity is a kaleidoscope—shifting, breaking, and hard to pin down. One day you're strong, the next you're lost.

We'll explore how these “inner characters” shape who we are and offer a way to steady the storm of BPD identity struggles. Plus, you'll walk away with one simple skill to start reclaiming your sense of self.

When was the last time your doctor mentioned your soul during treatment? I'm willing to bet never—and that's precisely the problem Dr. Catherine Kelly addresses in this profound conversation about what's missing from modern medicine and psychology."The father of medicine, Hippocrates, said the soul is present in every illness and every organ over 2,000 years ago. Carl Jung said the same for psychology. But where is it now?" Dr. Kelly asks. As a former medical school professor, she witnessed firsthand how the soul has been systematically removed from our healing traditions despite being the most foundational aspect of who we are.In this eye-opening discussion, we explore the Soul Health Model—a revolutionary framework visualizing our wellbeing as a tree with ten essential branches, including physical, psychological, interpersonal, financial, sexual, and recreational health. For practitioners interested in incorporating soul health into their work, Dr. Kelly shares details about her new certification program designed to bring this missing dimension back to healing professions. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, feeling disconnected, or simply curious about a more holistic approach to well-being, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on how reconnecting with your soul might be the missing piece in your healing journey.Bio Dr. Katherine Kelly, is a licensed psychologist in her own psychotherapy, soul-healing/coaching and consulting practice in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. She completed her Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from the University of Southern Colorado (1992) and both her Master's (1995) and Doctorate in Counseling Psychology (1999) from Indiana State University. She also earned a Master of Science in Public Health degree (2000) from the University of Missouri-Columbia, where she completed a Post-Doctoral Fellowship in the university's Department of Family and Community Medicine. She has received specialized training from the Mind-Body Medical Institute of Harvard University and has been trained in various holistic, natural health, and spiritual methods of healing, including nutritional psychotherapy, aromatherapy, Pranic Healing, Reiki, Soul Realignmen,t and other practices. Her dedication to healing has been widely recognized as she was the recipient of the Provider of the Year Award by the regional Mental Health Association and was nominated as an Incredible Woman for a local community television network, which spotlights role models to inspire young women to pursue their own passions.Website and Social Media drkatherinetkelly.comSoul Heal https://drkatherinetkelly.com/level-one-soul-health-certification/We hope you have enjoyed this episode.

BMI — the deeply misleading number that's on your medical chart whether you like it or not. Myers-Briggs — astrology for the boys. Love Languages — PHYSICAL TOUCH. We're here to deconstruct, to devalue, to de...smiss, these popular measures that were developed without adequate research. (To be fair the Myers-Briggs test was created by two ladies, but it was based on the work of Carl Jung, so close enough.)

While his style is often playfully philosophical, he's also capable of crafting achingly profound, beautiful music. Dunnery first gained public recognition in the 1980s as the lead vocalist and guitarist of the progressive rock band It Bites, achieving chart success across Europe and Asia. Since then, he has embarked on a diverse musical journey spanning over three decades, collaborating with renowned artists such as Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin), Carlos Santana, Chris Difford (Squeeze), Ian Brown (The Stone Roses), Lauryn Hill, and Steve Hackett (Genesis). He has also performed with legendary bands like Yes and Hootie and the Blowfish, and shared the stage with the iconic Chris Squire. Beyond these collaborations, Dunnery is a celebrated rock icon in his own right, having released over ten albums of original and diverse compositions, achieving international chart success. He is also the founder and president of The Charlie and Kathleen Dunnery Children's Fund (CKDCF), a charity dedicated to children's health and wellness in West Cumbria, England. The CKDCF hosts an annual benefit concert and charity walk, attracting support from some of the biggest names in rock and roll history. Dunnery is more than just a musician. He's an educator, a master songwriter, a mentor, and a storyteller. As Robert Plant once observed, “Francis Dunnery should be a public service.” For over four decades, he has consistently created original and engaging entertainment for his fans, from new CDs and live concerts to astrology readings and house concerts. Today, more than ever, Dunnery remains dedicated to his own personal freedom and individuality, and encourages the same in his audience. He continues his music and philosophical studies and plans to live a long and fulfilling life.Contact us: makingsoundpodcast.comFollow on Instagram: @makingsoundpodcastFollow on Threads: @jannkloseJoin our Facebook GroupPlease support the show with a donation, thank you for listening!

"You don't have to figure out your whole identity today. Jung's archetypes—like the Shadow, Hero, or Self—are like threads in BPD's tangled web. Start with one—maybe that loud Shadow—and give it a moment. You're not broken; you're a story unfolding. This is just the beginning."Living with Borderline Personality Disorder can feel like your identity is a kaleidoscope—shifting, breaking, and hard to pin down. One day you're strong, the next you're lost. In this session, we dive into Carl Jung's idea of archetypes—universal patterns in our minds—to help make sense of that chaos. We'll explore how these “inner characters” shape who we are and offer a way to steady the storm of BPD identity struggles. Plus, you'll walk away with one simple skill to start reclaiming your sense of self. This ep has raw insight that'll leave you wanting more (hint: ⁠sessions⁠ have it).Share this with someone who knows the chaos too. Hit us up with your own fire—how do you keep rising?

Originally Published February 1994And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. —2 Timothy 3:15The number of false beliefs being promoted and enthusiastically received among evangelicals is staggering and growing rapidly. Take for example a new book, Lonely No More, by Karen Mains of The Chapel of the Air. In it she tells of acquiring a personal spirit guide and making contact, through visualization, with what Carl Jung called "the idiot child within," whom she identifies as "Jesus Christ"! The depth and variety of delusions which evangelicals will embrace seem unlimited, especially if cloaked in psychological jargon.

In this Q&A session from 1993, Ram Dass talks about his passions, the balance of separateness and unity, dealing with turmoil, the creative force of the universe, and more. This episode of Here and Now is from a Q&A session at an event in Boise, Idaho in April 1993.Ram Dass begins with questions about dealing with people who might not like you, what his current passions in life are, and the art of staying in the present moment. Ram Dass moves on to inquiries about hesitating when action feels needed, making the transition from somebody to nobody, and the limits of Carl Jung's work with mythic archetypes. Finally, Ram Dass answers questions about dealing with polarization and turmoil in the world, offers his personal feelings about organized religion, and explores the creative force of the universe. He ends with a brief guided meditation centered around awareness and compassion for those who are suffering.The Ram Dass community gathers regularly to engage in meaningful discussions about the podcast.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for March 27, 2025 is: archetype • AHR-kih-type • noun Archetype refers to someone or something that is seen to be a perfect example. It is also a word for the original pattern or model of which all things of the same type are representations or copies. // The college's most popular philosophy professor is the archetype of the preoccupied academic, complete with the messy desk, disheveled hair, and brilliant theories. // The film is considered a sci-fi archetype for its pioneering use of special effects and prosthetics to depict an alien world. See the entry > Examples: “One of the most notable features of folktales, fairy tales, myths, and legends are their simplicity. These stories, many of them passed down to us across generations, are compelling because of the recognizable archetypes they incorporate (the evil stepmother, the dutiful daughter, the greedy king, etc.), their straightforward moral arcs, and their use of magic and transformation as catalysts for the plot.” — Gina Chung, LitHub.com, 13 Mar. 2024 Did you know? In her 2024 book Doppelganger: A Trip into the Mirror World, author Naomi Klein writes that “the doppelganger archetype has appeared across time to explore issues of life and death, the body versus the soul, the ego versus the id …” Klein doesn't mean that the same double, evil twin, or changeling keeps popping up throughout history, of course, but that the original concept of a doppelganger has served as a pattern, model, or template for writers to use in different ways, each supplying it with their own imagined details. Archetype's origins are in two Greek words: the verb archein, meaning “to begin,” and the noun typos, meaning “type.” Since its debut in English in the mid-1500s, archetype has taken on uses specific to the ideas of Plato, John Locke, and Carl Jung, but in everyday prose, archetype is most commonly used to mean “a perfect example,” as in “Robert Louis Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is considered an archetype of doppelganger fiction.”

At a time when things feel utterly groundless for so many of us, Dr. John J. Prendergast offers a practical approach to "meeting your deepest ground"—a stabilizing core of awareness and truth that is at once within and all around you. In this podcast, Tami Simon speaks with the retired therapist and spiritual teacher about his new book, Your Deepest Ground: A Guide to Embodied Spirituality.  Settle back for a fascinating conversation filled with both practical insights and esoteric wisdom for anyone on a path of growth and transformation. Tami and John explore overcoming deep inner resistance to what we would rather not face; how traumatic "material" becomes frozen in the body; Kundalini awakening; how to attune to your body's "subtle sensitivity" to receive the wisdom it has to offer; relaxing the mind; touching reality through and beyond the body; the "underground dimension" that is both personal and collective; the work of Carl Jung; becoming more intimate with the archetypal dimension of life; the challenge of defining the undefinable "absolute ground" of our being; transmitting a felt experience within a shared field of openness; the two kinds of inner blockages, psychological and existential; the core theme of safety; welcoming difficult feelings and experiences in order to better understand them; activating the light of awareness that leads to transformation; the practice of paying attention to the space behind you; mindfulness and witnessing our thoughts; humility and the pilgrimage from the head to the heart; the futility of "seeking" what is always already here; the disorientation that often precedes a reorientation; common symptoms people experience during the process of unwinding core contractions; letting go (and doing it with trust); the rainbow bridge between heaven and earth; why psychological healing is a necessary component for spiritual awakening; and more.
