TIMESTAMPS BELOW.
🎙️ How much of what you experience in your body is driven by your mind? In this candid discussion, we dive into the depths of psychosomatics, exploring the subtle field effects which define 'consciousness', and its powerful impact on physical health. This episode also touches on 'poltergeist' and 'exteriorisation' phenomenon. They key to understanding all of this, is 'information'...
Hosted by Steve and Pauline Richards and James P Dowling.
Intro/Outro created by Gareth Richards
Jung To Live By, presented by the Institute for Psycho-Systems Analysis, is creating videos and podcasts on Jungian-based Depth Psychology for personal development, study, and clinical practice.
Psycho-Systems Analysis, founded by Steve and Pauline Richards in 1988, is the New Paradigm, 21st-century evolution of Psychotherapy and Clinical Psychophysiology. As the original and ground-breaking fusion of Scientific Systems-Based Medical Holism with Jungian-based Depth Psychology, Respiratory Psychophysiology, and Hypnotherapy, it offers a dynamic, non-'psycho-reductive' approach to psychotherapy. Crafted to address real-world challenges, not abstract theory, the model stands firmly aligned with the emerging frontier of Neuropsychoanalysis.
