• 74: Carl Jung - How Your Dark Side Can Make You A Hero (Jungian Philosophy)

  In this podcast we will be talking about how your dark side can make you a hero, according to the philosophy of Carl Jung. Carl Jung's psychology is called analytical psychology and his philosophy is dubbed as “Jungian philosophy”. Jung’s most famous theory is ‘the individuation process.’  According to Jung, the human mind or psyche is made up of the conscious mind, which we are aware of, and the unconscious mind, which we are not aware of. Our unconscious mind is further divided into the personal unconscious, where things we've forgotten or repressed reside, and the collective unconscious, which holds shared memories and ideas of humanity known as archetypes. Archetypes are universal, symbolic patterns and themes that recur across cultures and throughout history. One of the key archetypes is "The Hero," representing the individual's journey towards self-discovery and growth. Although absolutely related, this is not to be confused with the immensely popular Hero's Journey storytelling mechanic, where a protagonist goes on an adventure, overcomes an obstacle, grows from the experience, and goes home. This Hero's Journey often involves confronting and integrating the shadow, another important concept in Jungian philosophy. The shadow lives in the personal unconscious and is the part of our mind where we hide all the traits and desires we don't like or can't accept about ourselves, such as anger, jealousy, or fear. Although the shadow might seem scary or mysterious, understanding and accepting it is vital for personal growth. By facing these hidden parts of ourselves, we stop wasting energy on hiding them and instead use that energy positively. This process of integrating your shadow, your dark side, helps you become more whole and balanced, which is key to becoming the Hero in your own life. Which is why in this video, we will be talking about what the hero archetype is, and how embracing your darkness could be the key to becoming a hero. So here are the steps you need to take so that your dark side can make you a hero, according to the philosophy of Carl Jung. 01. Get To Know The Hero Archetype 02. Get To Know Your Darkness 03. Face The Darkness 04. Face The Light 05. Be Yourself I hope you enjoyed listening to this podcast and hope that this wisdom on how to your dark side can make you a hero,  from the philosophy of Carl Jung will be helpful in your life.  Carl Jung, together with Sigmund Freud and Alfred Adler, is one of the 3 founders of psychoanalysis which is a set of psychological theories and methods aiming to release repressed emotions and experiences - in other words, to make the unconscious conscious. Jung was born in Switzerland in 1875 and died in 1961, leaving behind great works in the fields of psychiatry, anthropology, archaeology, literature, philosophy, psychology and religious studies. Jung had Freud as a mentor for a good part of his career but later he departed from him. This division was painful for Jung and it led him to found his own school of psychology, called analytical psychology as a comprehensive system separate from psychoanalysis. If classical psychoanalysis focuses on the patient’s past, as early experiences are very important in personality development, analytical psychology primarily focuses on the present, on mythology, folklore, and cultural experiences, to try to understand human consciousness. One of the most important ideas of analytical psychology which Jung founded is the process of individuation, which is the process of finding the self - something Jung considered an important task in human development. While he did not formulate a systematic philosophy, he is nonetheless considered a sophisticated philosopher - his school of thought dubbed “Jungian philosophy”. Its concepts can apply to many topics covered in the humanities and the social sciences. A good part of his work was published after his death and indeed there are still some articles written by him that to this day have yet to be published. Some of his most important books are: “Psychology of the Unconscious”, “Man and His Symbols”, “The Archetypes and The Collective Unconscious”, “Modern Man In Search of a Soul”, “The Psychology of the Transference”, “Memories, Dreams, Thoughts”, and “The Relations Between the Ego and the Unconscious”. Besides being a great writer and a researcher, he was also an artist, a craftsman and even a builder. His contribution is enormous and there is a great deal we can learn from his works.

• 73: Carl Jung - How Your Dark Side Can Reveal Your Life’s Purpose (Jungian Philosophy)

  In this podcast we will be talking about  the steps you need to take so that your dark side can reveal your life's purpose, according to the philosophy of Carl Jung. Carl Jung's psychology is called analytical psychology and his philosophy is dubbed as “Jungian philosophy”. Jung’s most famous theory is ‘the individuation process.’  According to Jung, the entirety of an individual’s being can be described by our psyche: encompassing all our conscious and unconscious aspects. At the center of our consciousness which is everything we are aware of - is our ego. But there is so much outside of the ego that we do not acknowledge. In the center of our unconscious, meaning everything that is hidden to us, lies our shadow or our dark side. According to Jung, in our unconscious lies the key to finding our purpose in life. This is because the purpose of your life is not something objective or universal: it is something unique to you. The purpose of life, according to Carl Jung, has nothing to do with what you achieve. It has to do with who you are and how you act.  In this video we will talk about the steps you need to take so that your dark side can reveal your life's purpose, according to the philosophy of Carl Jung. So here are the steps you need to take so that your dark side can reveal your life's purpose, according to the philosophy of Carl Jung. 01. Get To Know Your darkness 02. Work on Yourself 03. Take Action 04. Embrace Fear  05. Accept The Bad I hope you enjoyed listening to this podcast and hope that this wisdom on how to let your dark side reveal your life’s purpose,  from the philosophy of Carl Jung will be helpful in your life.  Carl Jung, together with Sigmund Freud and Alfred Adler, is one of the 3 founders of psychoanalysis which is a set of psychological theories and methods aiming to release repressed emotions and experiences - in other words, to make the unconscious conscious.

Jung’s most famous theory is ‘the individuation process.’  Carl Jung became immensely famous for his theory on ‘the individuation process’ - an almost step by step plan that seeks to fulfill your psyche’s potential by trying to make the unconscious conscious. The most important part of the unconsciousness to focus on for this practice is what Jung called ‘the shadow’, or your dark side. The shadow contains all the aspects of yourself that you’d rather not have and are in denial about, your bad traits and darkest side. The shadow is what you try to pretend you don’t have, even to the point of convincing yourself. Examples of traits the shadow could house are explosive anger, jealousy, envy, greed, pride, laziness, vanity, and so on...  Generally, we tend to be completely unaware of our shadow: it’s in our unconscious. But the suppressing of your unconsciousness is exactly what sustains unhappiness, inauthenticity, and misery. While you might think your shadow sounds more like your enemy than your friend, in this video we’ll explain why that’s not true; why you should consider your dark side your friend. Here’s why your dark side or your shadow side is your friend -  01. Your Dark Side Can Reveal Your True Self 02. Your Dark Side Can Give You Advice 03. Your Dark Side Can Help You Be Unique  04.

• 70: How To Own Yourself - Carl Jung (Jungian Philosophy)

  Carl Jung - How To Own Yourself (Jungian Philosophy) In this podcast we will be talking about how to own yourself from the philosophy of Carl Jung. He found his own school of psychology, called analytical psychology and his philosophy is dubbed as “Jungian philosophy”. Within the field of psychology, Jung is famously known for introducing the terms ‘introvert’ and ‘extravert,’ introducing archetypes of the psyche and classifying the boundary between the unconscious and conscious. Our consciousness includes everything that we know about ourselves; the unconsciousness entails everything that is part of us but that we are not aware of. Jung introduced ‘the ego’ and ‘the persona’ as our consciousness, and ‘the shadow’ and ‘the animus and anima’ as the parts that make up our unconsciousness. The shadow is one of the toughest, most intimidating parts to handle: it exists out of everything about ourselves that we dislike, which is why we often refuse to acknowledge it as a part of us. However, what many people don’t know is that not facing the shadow can be an even more intense blow on your self-esteem. But facing it is actually the only way to gain true control over yourself and who you are.   Which is why in this video, we will teach you how you can truly own yourself by doing so-called shadow work in 3 easy steps, from the philosophy of Carl Jung.  Step 1 - Meet Your Shadow  Step 2 - Accept Your Shadow  Step 3 - Integrate Your Shadow  I hope you enjoyed listening to this podcast, and hope that this wisdom on owning yourself from the philosophy of Carl Jung will be  helpful in your life.  Carl Jung, together with Sigmund Freud and Alfred Adler, is one of the 3 founders of psychoanalysis which is a set of psychological theories and methods aiming to release repressed emotions and experiences - in other words, to make the unconscious conscious.
