This is a RAW, UNSCRIPTED & REALTIME DEMONSTRATION of Jungian Active Imagination to show you how to speak safely with your Unconscious Mind.

Parts work practices are essential elements of any introspective journey, but there are unfortunately few good examples of what this messy practice actually looks like... and I find that intolerable. It's time to put some skin in the game.

In this episode of Inner Work Essentials, I've decided to put my private psyche in the public spotlight. This video openly demonstrates how to use Voice Dialogue & Parts Work to make contact with central archetypal and shadow figures, release the tension of internal conflicts, and progress further along the path of lifelong inner work and self-healing.

Book Recommendation: Embracing Ourselves, Hal Stone & Sidra Stone

Welcome to INNER WORK ESSENTIALS: the 52 episode series designed to provide you with an intense, diverse and holistic roadmap for full-spectrum self-healing and transformative self-education!

It's been a long time coming... with over 350 books researched in the last 27 months... but I'm overjoyed to FINALLY be sharing what I've learned about the Inner Working Landscape and how to do Inner Work at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels.

Want to know where this series is heading? Read my teaching intentions below!

INNER WORK ESSENTIALS: SERIES AIMS (STATEMENT OF DIRECTION)

1) Provide the student with an informed and representative overview of multiple complementary therapeutic modalities to support their self-healing process; with special encouragement placed upon the auto-therapeutic application of particular healing modalities for particular problems at particular stages in their journey.

2) Nourish the intellectual and spiritual maturation of the student by familiarising them with the most exciting, challenging and credible concepts in developmental psychology, consciousness studies and transpersonal metaphysics; with central emphasis being placed upon comparative analysis of multiple complex theories.

3) Encourage an empowered and more authentic sense of individual self-expression as a combined outcome of the two previous intentions, plus the application of holistic lifestyle principles, self-educational practises, and foundational healthy habits.

INNER WORK ESSENTIALS: EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES

On completion of this series, the student should expect to be:

1) Auto-therapeutic. The student will feel generally competent in their ability to select and self-administer the most suitable therapeutic modality on a full-spectrum basis: ranging from the somatic resolution of central childhood wounds to the everyday self-regulation of symptomatic stress responses such as anxiety and addiction.

2) Closer towards baseline integral consciousness (Wilber). Through their combined efforts of rigorous self-inquiry and critical engagement with recommended reading material, the student will have significantly developed their intellectual and spiritual maturity to a noticeable degree, in likely correlation with their depth of engagement.

3) Holistically Empowered. The student will enjoy a meaningful expansion of their physical, emotional, sexual, and creative expression as a result of their healing and expansion work. In short, they will be healthier, happier and feel more complete.

4) Self-educational. The student will have felt organically inspired to move beyond free video content and create a self-structured learning arc which takes maximum advantage of at least several dozen inner working books mentioned within the course. The student will consequently enjoy lifelong learning habits including: critical research skills, long-term focus, and the ability to know when to stop studying.
