The Comox Valley C.G. Jung Society Presents Lecture: "Wilderness Within, Wilderness Without"

In this lecture on the need to live in or close to wilderness Dr. Kepner uses the film “Into the Wild” to explore analytically one young man’s desperate attempt to heal a broken psyche through an experience of wilderness. Joseph Campbell’s themes of the archetypal heroic will be explored in light of current, changing conceptions of the archetype. As wilderness disappears, what implications for Soul and psyche resound? How do we sustain our soulful connections to both inner and outer wilderness? What is an inner wilderness? How are inner and outer wilderness connected and in relationship to one another? Or not?

Tickets at the door: $15 for members / $20 for non-members /$10 special rate for students - Cash only at door.

Presented by Dr. Kepner, MDiv, PhD. Dr. Kepner trained as a Jungian Analyst at the CG Jung Institute, Zurich, and as a psychologist at Pacifica Graduate Institute in Carpinteria, California. . After having lived in US and European cities most of her life, she along with her musician husband, Gilbert, moved to a mountain wilderness of Washington State. http://www.janekepner.com/
