Workshop

  • Today more than ever we need moments and spaces of soulfulness. In this pandemic, we are brought face to face with our shortcomings. We feel unanchored. We have lost our way. So it was for Jung a century ago. He realized he had lost his way. He had lost his soul. The Red Book tells the story. Jung wanted to experience anew his delight as a child in watching the waves on the Lake of Constance. He wanted to find anew his soul. He wanted to experience soulfulness.

    In this workshop we will first look at what it means to be full of soul. Where do we find our soul? How do we befriend her? We will then look at journaling as a way to befriend our soul, to speak to her, to listen to her.  She will lift our wings, and we will experience something eternal, an instant of oneness. An instant that it is ours to share in the world around us.

    There will be four parts to the workshop, with writing exercises after each part and handouts.

  • 1)     What does it mean to be full of soul? (what is soul, excerpts from the Red Book)

  • 2)     Where do we find our souls (within ourselves, within relationships, within the natural world)

  • 3)     Journaling, a way to befriend our souls (practice of journaling as active imagination)

  • 4)     Sharing the light of soulfulness (excerpts from Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Thomas Moore, CG Jung)
