You may know Bob Proctor from the movie, The Secret, where he helped to explain the Law of Attraction. But Bob has been one of the top success coaches for decades.
Jung: Myss on Jung's Imagination and Archetypes
Carl Jung adored the realm of the imagination. He may well be the master explorer of our age of this domain. For him, the imagination contained the passageways to the psyche and the inner voices of our archetypes.
Final Review: Memories, Dreams, Reflections by Carl Jung
As a lover of opera, I was so happy to read that, after graduation, he used what little money had left to see Bizet’s Carmen and that it “intoxicated and overwhelmed” him on his first trip to the theatre (110).
Happiness – an Inside or Outside Job
This was a great column in the New York Times by David Brooks on Monday and it totally reminded me of what I've been reading in Marci Shimoff's book, Happy for No ReasonHappy for No Reason.
Jung: Developing a Sense of Oneness
I have to feel for the guy – imagine having your first encounter with the Divine when you are 12 and to be thereafter convinced that God is an immediate and awesome (in the terrifying sense of the word) presence. Now imagine having that experience 130 years ago in a society where no one was talking about direct experiences of God, where one would feel utterly alone and misunderstood.
Live Life with Grace
I have been captivated by the word 'grace' for a few years now. Both the idea of having grace and the physicality of being graceful. The more I study grace the more I realize that they are the same thing – that to be 'grace-ful' is to be 'full of grace'.
Jung: His Early Embodied Wisdom
In Memories, Dreams, ReflectionsMemories, Dreams, Reflections, Jung continued to explore the relationship between himself and the Divine, both in the waking and dream worlds. His developing sense of himself, his body, and the Oneness of existence provide many examples of embodied wisdom (and I’m going to just kinda list them here). He also continued to struggle with his feeling of isolation, searching for those who understood him.
Jung: The Holy Hermit
Jung’s No. 2 personality brought him "peace and solitude" and a sense of unity with both nature and God (45). His descriptions bring to mind the archetypes of the Hermit and the Mystic, both of which I use as a Sacred Contracts Coach.
Jung: Nature and Religion
As I mentioned in my previous post, I've just begun Jung's Memories, Dreams, ReflectionsMemories, Dreams, Reflections and woven through the first two chapters are images and stories that clearly reflect Jung's early fascination with Life – both the end of life and the beauty and mystery of nature. His earliest memories contain beautiful images of "golden sunlight darting through green leaves," the Alps, and looking across an expanse of water which brought him an "inconceivable pleasure" (6,7).
