Moments of deep connection , however, are hard to come by, or at times, non-existent. As our minds and bodies are pulled to the tasks of daily living, they may exist in a perpetual state of disconnect from our inner nature. Not just daily tasks, but also adverse/traumatic experiences can sever the psyche from the soma. This disconnect creates a longing in us, for that which will make us whole again.

​

Experienced usually as an un-nameable feeling, the inner disconnect may show up in the external world as a deep resonance (love/desire as the mystics described) or resistance (hate/ disgust) towards something or someone. When unmet or denied, it can also show up as an ailment of the body (chronic aches/ disease), an emotional disturbance (depression/ anxiety etc.), relationship issues or feelings of stuckness.

​

Jungian Analysis is a depth based approach, that is, it focuses on using symbolic mediums like dreams to help uncover unconscious or severed aspects of our Self. As we become conscious of these aspects and work to integrate them in the fabric of our being, we can feel more like our authentic selves.

​

Sufi saints or mystics spoke of Divine Love as the path to inner connection/transformation. Carl Jung identified this journey that would feel like a return home to our Self, as Individuation.
