What are some techniques that help you or your clients navigate uncertainty?
The goal of Jungian psychology is wholeness, not perfection.
Wholeness embraces all parts of the psyche, including the shadow, wounds, shortcomings, blunders, and mistakes.
If 'perfection' was our goal, we might ignore the other sides of ourselves that make us whole.
This approach recognizes that true psychological health and growth come from integrating these aspects rather than denying or eliminating them.
By acknowledging and accepting our imperfections, we move towards a more authentic and balanced self, where all experiences contribute to the richness and depth of our personality.
This holistic integration is essential for achieving inner harmony and personal fulfillment.
What are some things that have made you feel whole, recently?
As humans, we crave certainty.
About our world, about what others think, about the BEST way to do things...
..But the more we learn, we begin to grasp the gap we had between the truth and our former beliefs.
Instead of being intimidated by this thought, consider the opposite is true:
What you don't know puts you at oneness with everyone else.
We are all on different parts of our individuation journey at any moment, why should we expect ourselves to know everything at once?
So today, allow yourself to feel at peace with who you are in this moment, with your current knowledge of all that's around you.
We certainty think this is a better way to move forward!

Thoughtful Thursday: Complex.
The term "complex" is a well-known concept in popular cultural, initially introduced by Carl Jung.
A complex is a splinter personality that operates partially or wholly outside of our conscious awareness, residing in the unconscious -- meaning, we aren't necessarily aware of how this splinter personality operates.
We all possess several complexes, which are often sources of psychological pain for us. These complexes become apparent when we find ourselves stuck in repetitive loops of thought or emotion, unable to move past certain issues.
Recognizing and integrating these complexes is crucial for achieving psychological wholeness.
A great introduction to complexes and archetypes is by Jungian Analyst Ken James. Check out more here: https://i.mtr.cool/qsedefkosv

Don't forget: your Shadow is a part of your mind, too!
Just as we seek to 'cleanse' ourselves of the darker, less socially-acceptable, or embarrassing parts of ourselves... we forget that THEY are an integral part of ourselves.
Everything in our souls -- positive and negative -- has a profound ability to teach us important things about life and living.
So why would you discard something before truly understanding WHAT it is?
These are powerful emotions that have a REASON to exist, a meaning that can show us how to better become who we are meant to be.
This is what it means to integrate the Shadow along our path to individuation.
As you reflect on this passage, what does it conjure for you?
Whether you desire to become a life coach, enhance your current practice, or simply learn how to utilize Jungian coaching techniques -- we have two Certification programs you'll love to explore:

Be An Angel Day is to remind us to be kind to others, encouraging us to commit good deeds -- especially when it's unexpected.
When we support those in need and inspire others to kindness, we display an act of an angel here on earth.
The qualities of the divine that we read about in stories can manifest at any time, if we allow it to happen.
As we reflect today on angels, this is a great time to begin forming a relationship with your own guardian angel.

Historically, August has often been associated with harvest time and abundance. It marks a period of transition between summer and autumn when crops are ripening for harvest.
But this isn't just a time for ripening crops... it is also a time for ripening IDEAS.
As our world passes from one season to another, take time today to observe the changing of the world around you.
What ideas are coming to you on a hot breeze? On a chill evening?
What does this concept of 'harvest' illuminate for you?
Personally, we think that this is a perfect time to indulge in looking within. Like Craig Chalquist did in this course, where he guides us to learn about the story we emerged into—a story that organizes our weaknesses and strengths, needs and values, desires and dreams.

Do you remember the last time a creative act really SHOOK you loose?
Think of all the different ways we learn to use our mind, and yet, in the midst of a creative act -- writing, building, playing -- is when we sometimes learn the most.
All creative acts do take a leap of faith.
Not just because creative work is seen and appreciated by an audience, but because the belief in oneself to accomplish it must be present.
Carl Jung expressly utilized the imagination -- including active imagination -- to study and work through his philosophy on individuation.
The fields of modern 'self-help' and coaching have been SHAPED by Jungian ideas about the self and our larger connection through the collective unconscious.
Adding Jungian Coaching techniques to your current practice is the BEST way to integrate the use of dreams, imagination, and archetypes into your work.
And this isn't just a journey for your career... our Certification Program transforms YOU.

Thoughtful Thursday: Individuation.
What concept of Carl Jung's would you like us to explore more in detail next? Let us know in the comments.
Individuation is a term that Carl Jung coined for the process of psychological growth.
Jung believes that we are born with qualities, talents, and wounds, and these aspects seek expression in our lives.
The conscious realization of this unfolding of our psyche is called the individuation process. Jungian psychology adds that individuation involves integrating the conscious and unconscious parts of the self, leading to a more complete and balanced personality.
This journey often includes confronting and assimilating the shadow, anima/animus, and other archetypes.

Thoughtful Thursday Question: When was the last time you tried to tap into your personal unconscious?
Carl Jung originally posited there are layers, both personal AND collective, that make up the unconscious mind.
The personal unconscious is the storehouse of personal elements—both repressed, forgotten, and those that were never conscious. This is unique to each person.
In contrast, the collective unconscious is a shared psyche with all of humanity and the world. All of us are connected one way or another through this collective unconsciousness.
Think about it a little like swimming or surfing in the ocean...
The personal unconscious is the wave, while the ocean represents the collective unconscious. We all stem from the ocean together, but encounter the shore and move through our lives in our own way as well.
There are many ways of working with the personal unconscious -- and if you're interested in tapping into yours, check out these blog articles:

Thoughtful Thursday: Daimon
The daimon is the Greek word for a spirit guide, or in other cultures also referred to as the genius or the divine twin.
We all have a daimon, whose job it is to help and protect us on our life journey and remind us of why we came to Earth.
According to the ancient Greeks, being in touch with the daimon is the best form of happiness or fulfillment.
In our new course on Befriending Your Angel, the Irish mystic Lorna Byrne helps you connect to this daimon or angel.

Thoughtful Thursday: Self
Our psyche is a multi-layered place. One where multiple energy systems stay active in our unconscious.
The organizing center and guiding principle in our psyche is what Carl Jung called the Self.
All psychological work centers around building a relationship with the Self and having an experience of the Self.
Of course, there are several ways to make contact with and communicate with the Self...
