"There's Something Out There…" Presented by Jung Society this Friday
The C. G. Jung Society of New Orleans will present, "There's Something Out There…and In Here!" at St. George's Episcopal Church, 4600 St. Charles Avenue, New Orleans, this Friday, October 6, 7:30 pm.
The presenter will be Mike Box, LPC, Jungian Analyst.
According to the program materials, "In the 1950s, Jung wrote an essay addressing the highly popular idea of UFOs from the perspective of analytical psychology. When viewed as an image, Bigfoot lends itself to understanding 'splitting' and 'projection.' It also serves as a mirror, allowing us to reflect on our relationship with the natural world, our place in it, and some of what may have been lost in our continual movement away from the natural world. We will explore this phenomenon psychologically and imagine what it may suggest about our relationship with the world around us."
Mike Box is a Jungian Analyst practicing in Jackson, Mississippi. The focus of his practice has been assisting clients in working through their addictions and overcoming trauma. His interests lie in the intersection of psychology, spirituality, and Nature. He completed graduate work at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology in Palo Alto, California, and received analytical training from the Inter- regional Society of Jungian Analysts. He is a faculty member of the Memphis-Atlanta Jung Seminar.
