Workshop Susan Tiberghien A WRITING LIFE, A CREATIVE LIFE: The Importance of Words Friday, May 8 We will dip into our inner source to discover our stories and share them with words. We will look at the importance of being still and of paying attention – to the world around us and the world within us, to our surroundings and to our dreams. As we find images that resonate for us, we will describe them, draw them, listen to them. We will shape them into journal entries, personal essays, narratives, prose poems. And finally we will together see how to share our words, how to become lightbearers in the world around us.

An Evening With . . . Larry Dossey The Power of Premonitions: How Knowing the Future Can Shape Our Lives Thursday, May 21 Premonition is a way into the intuitive realm. "I'm not asking you to take anything in this book on blind faith but to open yourself up to the possibility of premonitions and the evidence supporting them. Listen to the stories people tell. Explore the research that demonstrates our capacity to sense the future. Ponder the implications of mind outside of time. Invite premonitions into you life and see what happens. If you do so humbly and reverently, your life will likely become more premonition prone, and you may touch that exquisite, infinite realm to which premonitions, now as always, are a door " (from The Power of Premonitions). Ordinarily, Evenings With . . . are held on Friday nights in the Jung Society Library, but this one is on Thursday and will need a larger container. Dr. Dossey's new book will be available for purchase and signing. Larry Dossey, M/D., is a leader in bringing scientific understanding to spirituality and rigorous proof to alternative medicine. He is the author of the New York Times bestseller, Healing Words, the first serious look at how prayer affects healing. He has been featured several times by Oprah Winfrey – her TV show, radio show, and magazine – and is an international advocate for the role of the mind in health and the role of spirituality in healthcare. We are pleased to welcome him back.. Purchase tickets in the |

Jung Memorial Lecture Joan Chodorow
SOUL'S BODY: Emotions and Their Development Friday, June 5 This lecture will explore overlapping biological, psychological, and cross-cultural perspectives, with special attention to joy, interest, and surprise as they modulate and transform the emotions of crisis and survival. This modulating process can be seen in the cycle of rupture and repair between mother and infant. The natural process of symbolic development transforms the emotions into a sensitive network of feelings and complexes and, ultimately, the highly evolved expressive patterns of human culture. . Purchase tickets in the Jung Memorial Workshop ACTIVE IMAGINATION AND THE LIVING BODY: Psychological Connections to Consciousness
