September 24 2021 Lecture - Fiann Paul ARCHIVE

About this Event

C.G. Jung described the outbreak of a neurosis as an attempt at self-cure: “It is an attempt of the self-regulating psychic system to restore balance, in no way different from the function of dreams.”  We know a lot about the burden of the wounds that we carry and how we struggle with them. Personality disorders, from a social point of view, are perceived as something dysfunctional. However, Fiann asks the provocative question: How to approach and address this attempt specifically when we are dealing with individuals who contribute through their neurosis? Perhaps this neurosis was the driving force which set many remarkable individuals on their mission to contribute to the development of our civilization.
