Living Wholeness: the life and work of Barbara Hannah

Barbara Hannah was an extraordinary woman and Jungian analyst who lived according to the principle of individuation and the archetype of wholeness. After analyzing with Jung and his associates, Barbara Hannah became an analyst in her own right, lecturing widely and publishing several books related to the concepts of analytical psychology as well as a biography of Jung.  At Jung's suggestion Barbara Hannah shared a home with Marie-Louise von Franz for nearly twenty five years. This presentation will highlight how her devotion to the unconscious and the process of wholeness led to a meaningfully lived life.

“Encounters with the Socio-Political Other: A Jungian Phenomenological Analysis of Individuation through Conflict”

Carly Larson Solome is a doctoral candidate at Fielding Graduate University. Carly is in her second year of training with the Heartland Association for Jungian Analysts, with a personal study focused on the relationships between the imaginal, somatic responses, and the phenomenology of the interpersonal field. This research project was inspired by existential-integrative psychotherapy training with the Existential Humanistic Institute where she learned from Dr. Kirk Schneider's work on inner depolarization and Experiential Democracy.

This project upholds the research process as a form of social activism in service to emerging aspects of personal and collective consciousness. The intent was a radical act of hope: If the investigator looked deeply into social division, could creative potential be found within the destruction? The results of this research answer that question through the lived experiences of people across the United States who sought to engage, human to human, with their sociopolitical other. The themes that emerged illuminate movements in awareness that occurred during conflict: self and other, personal and collective, past and future. Together, the themes tell a story of what happens when a choice is made to wrestle with social angst and division.
