SUMMARY:Underground Rivers: A Study Group
DESCRIPTION:Concepts in analytical psychology are often challenging to fully grasp. Jung’s writings in particular can seem difficult to integrate into actual therapeutic practice. This group\, which meets monthly\, will perform close readings of various texts—from Jung\, Hillman\, and others—and relate the concepts therein to the subjective experiences of both participants and their clients. The co-facilitators will encourage conversation and relate the ideas addressed to the larger Jungian framework.

SUMMARY:HEALING THE WOUNDS OF HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS IN CLINICAL AND COMMUNITY SETTINGS
DESCRIPTION:SATURDAY\, MAY 11\, 2024\n9AM – 1PM/PT\nFACULTY: MONICA LUCI\, PHD & GIOVANNA BIANCHI\, PHD\n3 Possible Continuing Education Credits Approved for MD\, PhD\, PsyD\, MFT\, LCSW\, LPCC\, LEP & RN\nTUITION: $90 (INCLUDES CEUs)\n\nFocusing on the importance of cultivating a dialogue between the field of human rights and analytical psychology. \n\nThe contribution that analytical psychology can make to understanding and healing the consequences of human rights violations is relevant and awaits its potential\, both with individuals in the clinical field and within communities\, shedding light on aspects that may be overlooked in clinical practice due to the focus on the individual level. A psychosocial perspective that broadens the perimeter to include communities of origin and the suffering of the family and groups can make many individual wounds more understandable and treatable. We will delve into some of the key issues concerning the treatment of human rights violations at both the individual and collective level with vignettes.\n\n\nMONICA LUCI\, PHD\, (Italy/UK) is a clinical psychologist\, Jungian and relational psychoanalyst\, and Lecturer in Refugee Care at the Department of Psychosocial and Psychoanalytic Studies of University of Essex\, England. She is a member of the Board of the Journal of Analytical Psychology\, and author of publications on the themes of trauma\, torture\, refugees\, human rights\, displacement\, collective violence\, gender\, and psychoanalysis.\n\nMARIA GIOVANNA BIANCHI\, PHD\, (Switzerland) is a Jungian psychoanalyst and psychotherapist in private practice. Member of the Board of Directors of the C.G. Jung Foundation\, Zürich. She worked for the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights for almost three decades. She authors articles\, speaks at conferences and lectures in academic contexts on the complementarity between human rights and analytical psychology.

DESCRIPTION:SATURDAYS: OCTOBER 7\, NOVEMBER 4\, DECEMBER 2\, 2023; JANUARY 6\, FEBRUARY 3\, MARCH 2\, APRIL 6\, MAY 4\, 2024 NOON -4PM/PT\nFACULTY: NAOMI RUTH LOWINSKY\, PHD\nTUITION: $450 (SPACE IS LIMITED) \nThunder is no longer the voice of a god … No river contains a spirit\, no tree means a man’s life\, no snake is the embodiment of wisdom\, and no mountain harbors a great demon …\nC.

When did we forget that She is our Great Mother\, that She is Grandmother Spider— Her web woven into everything we are? When did we lose our Animal souls—so attuned to Her vibrations\, to Her every scent\, touch and mood? When did we lose our Forest minds\, our Hunter–Gatherer minds\, our Farmer minds? When did the Great Split of consciousness sever Her magic from ours\, turn Her into a possession\, a slave?\n\nIn a time when Mother Earth is threatened and threatening our lives and habitats with fire\, flood\, tornadoes\, hurricanes\, earthquakes and volcanoes\, we need Her poets to remind us who we are and where we come from—Earthlings made of Her red clay. To worship our Earth as a Goddess\, to know Her as a living being\, is to return to the wisdom of our ancestors who knew\, along with Jung\, that the Earth has a soul. Reading the poets of Earth Magic\, writing under their influence\, offers us a way back to the “Unus Mundus”—the One World— and weaves our souls and our writings into the tapestry of all creation. The poets we will read are Aimée Nezhukumatathil\, Ross Gay\, and Lucille Lang Day\n\nNaomi Ruth Lowinsky\, PHD is an analyst member of the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco and a widely published and anthologized poet. She is the winner of The Blue Light Poetry Prize and the Obama Millennial Prize. Her fifth poetry collection Death and His Lorca\, was recently published.

SUMMARY:THERE AND BACK AGAIN: INTO THE STARRY NIGHT II
DESCRIPTION:A call to adventure! A return to in-depth exploration of C. G. Jung’s ideas in The Red Book \nIn our current climate of information saturation\, cynicism\, and incendiary politics\, The Red Book stands out as an unapologetic call to meaning\, interiority\, and the development of the inner person. Jung’s personal encounter with chaos and madness\, through a journey into the imaginal\, was the lifeblood of his conceptual framework\, one that he further refined in the Collected Works. Sonu Shamdasani\, editor of The Red Book has referred to this work as an “underground stream\,” in relation to the collected volumes. QiRe Ching will read aloud selected passages\, following The Red Book’s narrative\, while pausing frequently to facilitate discussion. The class will explore and unpack what Jung is saying. Participants will be encouraged to sink into their full range of feelings and associations as their psyches are activated by the material. Many people have found The Red Book difficult to follow on their own. The intention of this class is to provide participants with meaningful signposts that will excite them to return repeatedly to this work for inspiration. \n  \nQIRE CHING\, LCSW is a member analyst of the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco. He teaches in the candidate training program and is in private practice.

SUMMARY:THERE AND BACK AGAIN: INTO THE STARRY NIGHT II
DESCRIPTION:A call to adventure! A return to in-depth exploration of C. G. Jung’s ideas in The Red Book \nIn our current climate of information saturation\, cynicism\, and incendiary politics\, The Red Book stands out as an unapologetic call to meaning\, interiority\, and the development of the inner person. Jung’s personal encounter with chaos and madness\, through a journey into the imaginal\, was the lifeblood of his conceptual framework\, one that he further refined in the Collected Works. Sonu Shamdasani\, editor of The Red Book has referred to this work as an “underground stream\,” in relation to the collected volumes. QiRe Ching will read aloud selected passages\, following The Red Book’s narrative\, while pausing frequently to facilitate discussion. The class will explore and unpack what Jung is saying. Participants will be encouraged to sink into their full range of feelings and associations as their psyches are activated by the material. Many people have found The Red Book difficult to follow on their own. The intention of this class is to provide participants with meaningful signposts that will excite them to return repeatedly to this work for inspiration. \n  \nQIRE CHING\, LCSW is a member analyst of the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco. He teaches in the candidate training program and is in private practice.

SUMMARY:EXPLORING THE NIGHT SEA JOURNEY THROUGH  THE MINDFUL VIEWING OF FILMS
DESCRIPTION:SATURDAY\, MARCH 9\, 2024\n10AM – 3PM/PT\nFACULTY: FRANCIS G. LU\, MD\n4 Possible Continuing Education Credits Approved for MD\, PhD\, PsyD\, MFT\, LCSW\, LPCC\, LEP & RN\nTUITION: $120 (INCLUDES CEUs)\n\n\nInspiring characters in film show personal development in the face of death\, teaching us for our work and in our work with patients. \n\n\nThe 1997 film “Titanic” tells an extraordinary love story that can be viewed as a psychological night-sea journey—a watery initiation of anima development as Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and\nC. G. Jung described —that brings the heroine from Eve to Helen to Mary to Sophia. The contemporary framing story of the elder heroine’s remembered love stimulated by found objects on the ship (comb\, mirror\, and a drawing) exemplifies the process by which the anima develops to Sophia wisdom.\n\nAkira Kurosawa’s 1952 film “Ikiru” presents the viewer with a more private night-sea journey: a sudden awareness of an individual’s mortality that leads to living a more engaged and meaningful life. The film’s hero confronts what psychiatrist Irvin D. Yalom has called “the four existential issues”: death\, meaninglessness\, isolation\, and freedom. Simultaneous to his outward late-life “Hero’s Journey”\, the hero experiences a far deeper inward arc of transformation of consciousness\, which takes him from the individual persona and ego\, to a realization of the Self\, and finally the transpersonal Unus Mundus.\n\n\nFRANCIS G. LU\, MD\, is the Kim Professor in Cultural Psychiatry\, Emeritus\, at the University of California\, Davis. Since 1987\, he has led or co-led 37 film seminars at Esalen Institute on positive psychological qualities. He has presented film seminars at C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco\, C.G. Jung Society of St. Louis\, Centre for Applied Jungian Studies\, and Door County Summer Institute.
