I have a passion for the wisdom found within sacred texts. I write meditations on the Judeo-Christian scriptures. I consider the meaning of the stories from an analytic, symbolic perspective. Each person, place, or thing in the story represents some aspect of our psyche/soul. By contemplating the scriptures in this way, we learn about the inner workings of our human nature.
I also offer online Sacred Circles for connecting consciously to God Within. Each circle contains 6 modules guiding you in embodiment practices and processes. You work independently, at your pace. The circle shares through a private online community site and bi-monthly live Zoom circles.
The first spiral focus on:
EssentialEmbodimentPractices , New members begin each Solistice (June 21 and Dec. 21). Click on link for details.
This is the first in a series of circles that empower you to embody your innate, divine nature in all areas of your life. The 2nd and 3rd spirals walk you through Fundamental Embodiment Processes.
Jung at Harp Video Series (https://www.JungatHarp.com)
Grammy nominated harpist and composer Deborah Henson-Conant and I have an ongoing conversation about music and how it connects, inspires and informs everything else in life … and how that connection goes both ways. A YouTube series (and upcoming podcast) about the intersection of music, analytical psychology, and creative living.
