13th Annual: Jung On The Hudson
Rhinebeck, New York
“The New York Center for Jungian Studies is proud to present its thirteenth annual Jung on the Hudson Summer Seminars—a series that offers an opportunity for participants to meet and exchange ideas with others who come from diverse backgrounds, yet all having a common interest in the psychology and ideas of C.G. Jung. Open to individuals from all fields, as well as mental health professionals, these seminars are designed to meet the needs of those interested in exploring the relevance of Jung’s ideas to their personal lives and/or professional activities.
Week one, “Needing to Belong: The Archetype of Family & Community,” will expand upon Jung’s view that one cannot individuate in a vacuum. Lack of family, “tribe” or community, feeling like “other,” and being isolated, can create feelings of alienation and despair. Alternatively, sharing common roots, values, needs and being accepted and understood creates connectedness, identity and a strong sense of Self. Nevertheless, while the need to identify with one’s family and/or community is an integral part of each of our psyches, the shadow side can create unhealthy loyalties, exclusive groups, cult like allegiances and a loss of personal responsibility and identity. The focus of this week will be to explore these opposites in ourselves and in the collective.
Week two, “Memory, Mind & Meaning: How We Heal,” assembles an international, resident faculty for the week—one with expertise and familiarity with the newest mind/brain research being done in the U.S. and abroad. Combining presentations, small groups and “authentic movement” workshops, we will engage in passionate dialogue and an exchange of ideas between participants and faculty. Our goal will be to learn more about the important new research being done in this area: how memory and emotion interface, and the important roles relationship, body, archetypes, trauma and personal myths play in our development. By integrating this exciting new material with the psychology and ideas of Carl Jung, we will gain a greater understanding of ourselves and our capacity for growth and healing.
We invite you to join us in the scenic Hudson Valley this summer for outstanding and stimulating content in an extraordinary setting where one can truly nurture both body and soul!
