Listen "Jungian Individuation: Finding Your Authentic Self"
Episode Synopsis
Explores the psychological journey of discovering one’s authentic self, drawing on concepts from Carl Jung. It explains Jung’s idea of individuation, a lifelong process of integrating all aspects of the self, and highlights the role of the persona — the social mask people adopt to fit in — which can lead to dissatisfaction when mistaken for the true self.The discussion also addresses the shadow, representing the denied or repressed parts of the psyche, such as anger, fear, or jealousy, emphasizing that confronting this shadow is crucial for personal growth and self-awareness. Modern research supports the idea that suppressing emotions can negatively impact overall well-being.Finally, the text outlines practical steps for self-discovery, including journaling, spending intentional alone time, and reflecting on personal values, encouraging individuals to move beyond external expectations and cultivate a sense of inner wholeness.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/life_notesProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
