Our Featured Guest

Dr. Jean Shinoda Bolen shares how she was mentored by Jungian supervisors as she earned her degrees in medicine and psychiatry. She comments on this "in between time" the world has been cast into through the COVID-19 pandemic and the Black Lives Matter protests, a threshold of something new, and the importance of remembering gratitude in our path to help others. Grassroots movements enter into the archetypal consciousness of us all. Dr. Bolen talks how Dr. Carl Jung's ideas on archetypal patterns of human behaviour and sense of being and his thoughts on synchronicity came together for her in her writing her first book The Tao of Psychology—Synchronicity and the Self and then onto her book Goddesses in Every Women, so that women could understand their strengths and weaknesses without the dependence on male archetypes.  Dr. Bolen feels for herself a strong connection to sisterhood and she encourages the gathering of women to tap their highest Self, that divinity throughout the ages, in healing circles, as describe in her book The Millionth Circle: How to Change Ourselves and The World--The Essential Guide to Women's Circles, and her sequel Moving Toward the Millionth Circle, that good can come out of crisis, whether personal  or global. Dr. Bolen shares some tips on forming a circle, enabled today with online video meetings in the midst of the precautions for the pandemic, and she invites listeners to join her newsletter list through her website www.jeanbolen.com.
