C. G. Jung understood that psychological wellbeing grew from the capacity to hold the totality of lived experience, including the capacity to endure periods of darkness and face destructive human impulses. One challenge this presents is whether we can become conscious of parts of our own psyches we might otherwise want to place outside ourselves.
This general principle is most relevant to what has been unfolding in the world over the past weeks and months. In this webinar Glen Slater will apply Jungian concepts to current events, showing how meaningful possibility can arise in the midst of widespread suffering and generate psychic energy for cultural change and social responsibility.
