Notes:

Dr. Carl Jung (1875-1961) was a Swiss psychiatrist who was influential in the fields of psychology, psychiatry and spirituality.  His contributions include archetypes (universal symbols which we carry within ourselves such as Hero, Mother, Warrior etc.), the collective unconscious, our shadow (the unconscious, rejected parts of ourselves), individuation (becoming aware of our true Self), dream analysis, synchronicity (meaningful coincidences that suggest a connection between events and the psyche), and the anima/animus (male and female sides of ourselves).

Dr. Walker will present some fundamental concepts in Jungian psychology, not as an accredited specialist, but as a humble analysand discovering the other side of himself.
