Ep. 82: *BEST OF THE PODCAST* Your Unconscious, Your Ego, & You with Jungian Psychologist Gary Bobroff
Gary S. Bobroff is the author of Knowledge in a Nutshell: Carl Jung (2020) and Crop Circles, Jung & the Reemergence of the Archetypal Feminine (2014). He is the founder of Jungian Online and JUNG Archademy and the developer and facilitator of Archetypal Nature. He has an MA in Jungian-oriented Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute and a BA from the University of British Columbia, Canada.
In this episode, we discuss:
· A brief history of Carl Jung – his work, his contribution to psychology, and his influence on our culture.
· The human psyche and the different views – or definitions – of it.
· Our egos and how they can be under-developed or over-developed.
· How we need a strong sense of self in order to grow.
· Archetypal principles and where they exist in our culture and our psyches.
· Four common personality archetypes and their different characteristics.
· Whether we should try to enhance each archetype within us or settle for being in one or two.
· How to identify our archetype and how to look at other archetypes to further our own growth.
· How we can get trapped trying to live in a different archetype because that’s what we think we are supposed to be.
· How understanding the different archetypes can help in relationships, especially family.
· And how archetypes impact dating and relationships.
