In this episode:
We explore what it means to live an authentic life and how it can lead us to a place of resilience and meaning.

Sources for quotes and more:

  1. All quotes from Sections 1 - 3 -- "Discover Yourself," "Learn from Traditional Wisdom," and "Do Not Seek Happiness" are taken from an article titled The Art of Living from the book 'C.G. Jung Speaking.'
  2. “The urge to become what one is is invincibly strong, and you can always count on it, but that does not mean that things will necessarily turn out positively. If you are not interested in your own fate, the unconscious is.” ~ C.G. Jung from A Talk with Students at the Institute in 'C.G. Jung Speaking.'
  3. “The dream is a little hidden door in the innermost and most secret recesses of the soul.” and “Dreams show us the unvarnished, natural truth..." ~ C.G. Jung from The Meaning of Psychology for Modern Man in 'Collected Works, vol. 10.'
  4. “I might formulate it as an affirmation of things as they are: an unconditional ‘yes’ to that which is...” and “How important it is to affirm one’s own destiny. In this way we forge an ego that does not break down when incomprehensible things happen..." ~ C.G. Jung from 'Memories, Dreams, Reflections.'
