Jung - Rollo May

Image
 A reflection mainly for the Suffolk Jungian Circle whose July meeting (Wednesday 29th July, 7.30pm via Teams - if you want the link to join in, just ask) will be exploring some of the ideas and theories of Rollo May. He had numerous concepts, so this video is just scratching the surface just to get debate rolling. There will not be a meeting August, to allow for holidays etc.. In September we will discuss Jung's notion of Archetypal Inflation - expanding on some of what is talked about in this video.

 It has been a while since I have posted anything that was not related to Jungian psychology. I have been going through a patch so dry it may as well have been desert, due to various situations that are best not mentioned. So, trying to get my mojo back by telling the story of King Sisyphus. The Greeks, like many other ancient peoples, had stories about individuals defying death and why that causes such dangerous repercussions.
