with Daniel Whiteside, Carol Van Der Meulen, and Melinda Rothouse.
- This retreat is an opportunity to step back from our day-to-day demands and activities for an extended period of concentrated discussion, dialogue, and strategic thinking. With that in mind we have designed this program to bring together a community for a day to focus on a few important areas of growth: Wisdom, Equanimity, and Compassion. The retreat will be an opportunity and container for bringing sacred living into your own life.

July 18-Sept 19, 2021: Tracing the Journey to Wholeness: The Path of Creativity and Individuation
A nine-week series class with Melinda Rothouse, presented by the Jung Society of Austin
Sunday afternoons from 4:00-6:00 pm via Zoom.
- According to Carl Jung, individuation is the process of becoming a separate, whole self that each of us experiences during the course of our lives, as we move through the stages of child and adult development. It involves incorporating unconscious material into consciousness and integrating the various strands of our being in a process of discovery and self-realization. Drawing inspiration from Jungian psychoanalyst and writer Clarissa Pinkola Estes's book Women Who Run with the Wolves, participants will trace their own journeys of individuation with the help of Estes' chapter "La Selva Subteranea: Initiation in the Underground Forest." Each week we will read and discuss a section of the chapter, with time allotted for individual reflection, journaling, and creative expression as well as dialogue and discovery. Melinda will act as coach and facilitator of this journey.
