Quote of the Day

“Every person must live the inner life in one form or another. Consciously or unconsciously, voluntarily or involuntarily, the inner world will claim us and exact its dues. If we go to that realm consciously, it is by our inner work: our prayers, meditations, dream work, ceremonies, and Active Imagination. If we try to ignore the inner world, as most of us do, the unconscious will find its way into our lives through pathology: our psychosomatic symptoms, compulsions, depressions, and neuroses.”
—Robert A. Johnson, from the book Inner Work

Know Thyself: The Wisdom Toolbox

Our topic at the NWA Friends of Jung for this coming year will be Know Thyself: The Wisdom Toolbox. We’ll be discussing various tools for inner work such as dreamwork, active imagination, free association, the enneagram, typology, meditation, creative expression, ritual, prayer, spiritual practice, mindfulness, retreat, soulcraft, journaling, and others. Please comment on this post with any thoughts or further ideas about this topic, for ongoing discussion between meetings.
