Uses dreams, myths and personal anecdotes to illustrate feminine and masculine power, anima and animus. Defines archetypal patterns of our contrasexual images and the effect on relationships with the opposite as well as self. From images to archetypes, The Language of Dreams (described in detail on www.tmwmedia.com/psychology) brings Jung's psychology to life in a compelling exploration of the dynamics between our dreaming and waking lives. Blending instruction, dream sharing, and deft interpretation, the viewer is enabled to gain a deeper awareness of the transformative potential inherent in Jung's unique approach to dreamwork. The Language of Dreams is a series of fifteen DVDs which explore dreams and their messages. Hosted by Elizabeth Strahan, a renowned Jungian analyst, it features conversations with other authors and analysts. The DVDs are presented in a teaching format-the host introduces the topic, discusses it conceptually, and then illustrates it through dream sharing or dialogue with an invited guest. Inherent in all programs are three underlying methodologies: dream inviting, dreamcatching, and dream weaving (the process of weaving waking and sleeping realities together to arrive at a deeper fabric of meaning). Although each DVD stands alone the programs are also grouped into three courses as follows: 1. The 2 DVD Short course "Understanding Your Dreams" and "Relating to Your Dreams," gives you dreamwork methods within a dream group setting. The presentation consists primarily in observing the dreamwork process in action. The remainder of the DVDs build upon this method, focusing on dream content and its meaning to the dreamer. 2. The 6 DVD Basic Course takes a look at men and women in dreams from opposite and same sex perspectives, and introduces Masculine/ Feminine principles, and the Shadow. Rich with mythological motifs and archetypal symbols, this course examines dream territory common to us all, shedding light not only on our dreams, but on our waking relationship to ourselves and others. 3. The Complete Course - all 15 DVDs - divides into two primary subject areas-symbols in dreams and the nature of relationships. Symbols focuses on common dream symbols and their archetypal meanings; e.g. birds, insects, snakes, transportation (cars, trains, bicycles, etc.), and particularly for women; clothing/adornment and cycles of life (including birth, menstruation, pregnancy, and old age). The relationship programs expand on earlier segments on masculine/feminine principles to explore the Anima and Animus, personality types and parallels between alchemy and the process of individualization through relationship. Included with the courses (web available) are bibliographies, reading material, and study guides Whether you're a student of Jung, a practicing analyst, or simply a dreamer interested in Jung's psychology, The Language of Dreams contains a wealth of vital information, provocative discussion, and food for thought.
