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.

SUMMARY:Deep River 2023-2024: Earth Magic
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. G. Jung\, CW 18 \,¶ 585 \nEarth magic made us\, gave us Her ground to stand on\, gave us Her roots\, Her leaves\, Her fruit to eat\, gave us Her wonders to make into shelter and clothing\, poems and stories\, gave us a world full of creatures to enchant us\, teach us their medicine. 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: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.

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.

SUMMARY:THE INNER WORK OF AGE: SHIFTING FROM ROLE TO SOUL
DESCRIPTION:“Whoever carries over into the afternoon of life the law of the morning must pay for it with damage to the soul.” (Jung 1931\, CW 8\, ¶787) \n  \nThis webinar\, for people 50+\, teaches us how to shift our identity from midlife Hero to wise Elder\, or from role (what we do) to soul (who we truly are). This workshop can help you discover how to shift your identity from doing\, achievement\, and image\, to your spiritual essence\, who you really are-from role to soul. It teaches how to move through late life as a rite of passage\, releasing past forms\, facing the unknown\, and emerging renewed as an Elder. We explore the internal\, unfamiliar terrain of soul-the subtle yearnings that appear in images and fantasies\, the ways we respond or fear to respond to those messengers\, and the symbolic meanings we glean from them. You can deepen your self-knowledge and eventually shift from denial to awareness\, self-rejection to self-acceptance\, obligation to flow\, and distraction to presence. This is the deeper dimension of age\, the universal journey of individuation\, even the unfolding of advanced stages of human development\, which are described in every spiritual tradition as the purpose of late life. \n  \nCONNIE ZWEIG\, PHD\, a retired Jungian-oriented therapist\, is co-author of Meeting the Shadow and Romancing the Shadow. Her book\, The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul\, extends her work on the unconscious for people 50+. It won the 2022 Gold Nautilus award\, the 2021 American Book Fest Award\, and the 2021 Best lndie Book Award for best inspirational non-fiction. Her new book: Meeting the Shadow on the Spiritual Path: The Dance of Darkness and Light in Our Search for Awakening\, is available now.

SUMMARY:WHAT THE C.G. JUNG INSTITUTE OF SAN FRANCISCO  CAN OFFER PSYCHIATRISTS
DESCRIPTION:When is the last time someone told you that listening to a dream can help a patient in the midst of a suicidal crisis or a schizophrenic decompensation? \n\nC. G. Jung developed his key concepts in the course of his training and early work\, first in institutional and then private-practice psychiatry\, yet psychiatrists today often don’t realize how much they can still learn from Jung’s version of medical psychology. This “taster” program will feature psychiatrists who had Jungian supervision and analysis as early as their residency years. They will explain how that impacted the evolution of their professional practices. Excerpts from a filmed set of interviews with Jung himself will illuminate how he thought about psychiatric patients and how depth psychological understanding can help them.\n\n\nJAMESJONGHUN BAE\, MD\, is an ana]yst member of the C.G.Jung Institute of San Francisco. He is in private practice in San Mateo\, Calif.\, is a clinical assistant professor of psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine\, and is a staff psychiatrist at the Counseling and Psychological Services at Vaden Health Center of Stanford University.\n\nJOHN BEEBE\, MD\, (Moderator) is a past president of the C.G.Jung Institute of San Francisco\, founding editor of its journal\, and a faculty member in its Analytic Training Program. John is a Distinguished Life Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association. Co-author of Psychiatric Treatment: Crisis Clinic and Consultation\, he has taught in 15 countries around the world.\n\nJEAN SHINODA BOLEN\, MD\, is an ana]yst member of the C.G.Jung Institute of San Francisco\, and an internationally known speaker and author of 13 influential books in over 100 foreign editions. She has a private practice in Mill Valley\, Calif.\n\nMAGA JACKSON-TRICHE\, MD\, MSHS\, is an Assistant Vice Chancellor and UCSF Health Executive Advisor for Diversity\, Equity\, Inclusion and Belonging. She is a Member-at-Large for the C.G.Jung Institute of San Francisco’s Board of Governors. Previously\, she was Chief\, Mental Health at the VA Medical Center- Northern California Health Care System.\n\nSETH ROBBINS MD\, MPH\, a half-time Medical Staff Physician at the University of California\, San Francisco\, is a Jungian ana]yst in private practice. He is board-certified in psychiatry. Dr. Robbins divides his time between his private practice and his role as an Associate Clinical Professor in the Dept. of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Medical School at UCSF.

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:DREAMDANCING: EXPLORING THE OPPOSITES
DESCRIPTION:“ One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light\, but by making the darkness conscious.” — C. G. Jung \n\nIn these challenging\, polarizing times we are called to draw from creative\, healing energies from deeper parts of the Self. Dreams\, imagination\, and embodied knowing offer profound resources —\npersonally\, culturally\, and from the timeless collective unconscious that connects us to one another\, to all of life\, and to the creative intelligence that informs us all. Transformation is an embodied\, cellular process involving reclaiming rejected parts of the self necessary for wholeness. Re-integrating shadow material projected onto others is essential to the work: What could emerge if we reclaim this “other?” \nAuthentic Movement\, or embodied active imagination\, is a simple yet powerful meditative and therapeutic approach that bridges body and psyche through expressive movement\, inviting descent\ninto the body and psyche within a safe environment. Exploring body-level responses provides a bridge to the unconscious. Through presentation\, natural movement\, and sharing we will rediscover\nthe light in the darkness. Please bring a dream figure — or your sense of a person in your life\, past or present — who inspires you! \nTINA STROMSTED\, PhD\, MFT\, LPCC\, BC-DMT\, RSME/T\, Jungian analyst\, Dance/Movement therapist\, Somatics educator\, & author is the founder of Soul’s Body Center® and past co-founder of the Authentic Movement Institute. She teaches at the C.G. Jung Institute in San Francisco\, Jung Platform\, Friends of Jung organizations\, the Marion Woodman Foundation and university and healing centers internationally. Her private practice is in San Francisco\, CA.

SUMMARY:THE PASSIONATE BODY: HIV/AIDS AS CULTURAL COMPLEX
DESCRIPTION:THE PASSIONATE BODY:\nHIV/AIDS AS CULTURAL COMPLEX \n\nSATURDAY\, DECEMBER 3\, 2022\n10AM – 2:30PM\nLIVESTREAM ONLY \nFACULTY: PAUL ATTINELLO\, PhD\nTUITION: $100 \n\nLooking at some of the emotional/cultural/archetypal patterns that have had such a deep impact on our world in modern times\, from HIV/AIDS to COVID-19. \n\nHIV/AIDS has been an intensely charged crisis in sexuality\, medical awareness\, and our relationship to sickness and death for forty years\, and continues to be an ongoing disaster in many parts of the world. I will approach AIDS as a series of dense cultural complexes\, all combining ancient roots with modern patterns\, with some reappearing in the COVID pandemic. Viral invasion\,  infection anxiety\, illness and death returning to the contemporary world has re-ignited some of these patterns. \nThe archetypal narrative of the experience of HIV/AIDS as it exists in the ego\, in the imagination\, in the body\, and in politics\, links the unapproachable intensity of early death tied to physical passion. The passionate body is a generating focus — the body that desires\, that is erotic — which is also the body that wants to live\, that battles and demonstrates and engages with contagion\, rot\, and disintegration. \nPAUL ATTINELLO\, PhD\, is a Jungian analyst who has taught at Newcastle University and the University of Hong Kong. He received his PhD from UCLA and diploma from the C. G. Jung Institute in Zürich\, Switzerland. He has lived and worked on four continents\, and is published in essay collections\, journals\, and references\, writing on contemporary music\, HIV/AIDS\, and philosophical and psychological topics.
