IV International Academic Conference of Analytical Psychology & Jungian Studies


IAAP-IAJS-Braga Conference 2012

IV International Academic Conference of Analytical Psychology & Jungian Studies

Jung's Analytical Psychology in Conversation with a Changing World

To be held at:
Universidade Católica Portuguesa. Faculdade de Filosofia. Braga. Portugal

The Faculty of Philosophy of the Portuguese Catholic University in Braga is actively engaged in Jungian studies, in which local IAAP and IAJS colleagues teach. It was also host to the first-ever Jungian conference in Portugal in April 2009.

Braga is the oldest city in Portugal, thought to have been founded around 20 BC during a period of Roman occupation; it is also one of the oldest Christian cities in the world. In the nineteenth century, immigrants from Brazil introduced new tastes in the city’s architecture and infrastructure. Today it is the center of one of the fastest growing area in the EU, and home to two universities.

SPIRITUALITY IN THE CONSULTING ROOM


A day on the Integration of the Spiritual

 

Dimension and Ordinary Clinical Work Ref.CPD/22

 

This day follows on from the autumn 2011 event in response to participant’s requests. The day offers another opportunity to explore how spirituality might be integrated with clinical work. Birgit Heuer’s paper “On Forgiveness” will be given in the morning as a focus for discussion and reflection. Like the presentation on numinosity  at the first event, this paper opens up the spiritual dimension in a unique way. The approach to forgiveness presented paradoxically allows for it to become more ordinary and perhaps more richly available than is usually assumed. The afternoon will be given to participant’s clinical needs. Questions to be addressed are: Is spirituality in the consulting-room about special moments of numinosity or could it simply be part of the therapeutic attitude? If so, how does this fit with ordinary clinical work? Does the clinical hour need to be re- conceptualized from a spiritual point of view? What might be the relation of prayer and clinical work, do they simply belong to different disciplines or might an integration  be possible, perhaps as prayerful therapeutic attitude? Are there ways in which the therapists spiritual attitude might aid the therapeutic process?  

Who the course is for

Mainly therapists, both qualified and in training, including those in academic courses, possibly interested and experienced patients.

Roger Woolger, Ph.D

To those of you who are familiar with Roger Woolger and his work, you may be interested to know that there is a thanksgiving service to celebrate his life and work as therapist and author on Thursday 23rd February, 12.30, at St James' Church, 197 Piccadilly, London W1J 9LL (the venue for 'Alternatives'). 

Below is a short notice (circulated by Jane May) after Roger's death in November.

All the very best,

Lucy Huskinson
 
A Calm Sea, and a Peaceful Voyage
 
After a recent serious illness, Roger Woolger  made the final physical transition into the Bardo realms on Friday 18th November 2011.  Roger was initially cared for by close friends in the UK,  finally returning to the US to receive the loving care of his family, in the place where he felt most at home.
 
Roger`s academic background included degrees in Psychology, Philosophy and Comparative Religion from Oxford and London Universities.  Trained as an analyst at the C.G. Jung Institute in Zurich, he created a unique form of spiritual psychotherapy known as Deep Memory Process and was internationally recognised for his pioneering work in past life regression.
 
In addition to his work as a therapist and author (Other Lives, Other Selves; The Goddess Within; Healing your Past Lives: The Eternal Return, he was a life-long student and teacher of the perennial philosophy and the Christian mystical tradition.   Roger continued his extensive teaching programme until the end of his life,  throughout Europe and the Americas, and for many years led study-tours in France and elsewhere.
 
Roger was a lover of life and all the arts, a bon-viveur, the life and soul of any party, and a distributor of dubious jokes and limerics with a weakness for the “oeuvre” of Monty Python.
 
Last, but no means least, however, through his considerable public persona and the powerful influence of his intelligence and scholarship, he made immediate and long-lasting connections with his audiences and students, nonetheless retaining to the end a humble attitude to his own considerable gifts.
